Variants of Soybean Cells Which Can Grow in Suspension with Maltose as a Carbon-Energy Source 1

RESUMO

Suspension cultures of soybean line SB-1 have been grown using maltose as an carbon-energy source. The very slow growth in medium containing maltose has been used to select rapidly growing variants. These appear to arise as a series of sequential genetic changes (mutations?). These variant strains are stable when grown in sucrose medium for 100 generations and appear to be able to transport maltose actively into the cell.
