栽培大豆起源与演化研究进展

 从大豆属物种的系统进化和栽培大豆起源研究的方法等方面评述了栽培大豆中国东北起源、黄河中下游起源、长江流域及南方起源、日本南部起源等多种假设的依据。在此基础上讨论了多样性中心与起源中心的关系、栽培物种起源与演化的研究方法,以及运用比较实验生物学研究作物进化时的技术性问题。作者倾向于支持栽培大豆南方起源假设。

The Origin and Evolution of Cultivated Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]

Several hypotheses on the center of origin of cultivated soybean can be found in the literature, i.e. thenortheast China, the Middle and lower reaches of the Huanghe River, the Changjiang River reaches and southern China,and the southern Japan, respectively. In the present paper the evidences of different hypotheses in the phylogeny of genusGlycine, archaeological remains, ancient literature and comparative experimental biology were reviewed. The problems suchas the relationship between the diversity center and center of origin and the methodology usually used in studies of originand evolution of cultivated species were discussed. The authors tended to support the hypothesis that the cultivatedsoybean originated from the ancient population of annual wild soybean in southern China.
