Schematic representation of the in silico steps for the generation of the local bank of seed sequences, their annotation, SuperSAGE tag-gene association, expression evaluation and anchoring of osmoprotectant candidates and their matched tags in the soybean virtual chromosomes.

Distribution and syntenic relationships of 124 osmoprotectants in soybean genome. Chromosomes are marked at centromere (white circle) in their expected position. Each osmoprotectants name is shown outside in described position of SoyBase. Syntenic relationships are shown as color lines between chromosome regions. Red line - Proline (P5CS and P5CR); Green line - Trehalose (TPS1 and TPPB); Purple line - Glycine Betaine (BADH and CMO); Blue line - Cysteine (OASTL and SAT); Orange line - Myo-inositol (INPS1).
