text: In addition to increasing the oil and decreasing the protein content of the seeds, the process of domesticating the wild soybean and transforming it into today's cultivated soybean involved creating a plant with more erect growth habit, less shattering of the seeds from the pods, and less twining (all of which facilitate harvesting, especially by machine), less sensitivity to photoperiod (day length, as governed by latitude; this facilitates north-south dissemination of the plant), larger plant size (large plants bear more seeds), larger seed size (giving higher yields, easier shelling, and a higher ratio of cotyledons to hulls), and a higher proportion of yellow seeds (which give a lighter colored oil and meal) (Hymowitz 1976 Ref??).
