Description
Soybean breeding leaves two paper trails, journal articles and patents, and Maria Fernanda Sua-Rojas and co-authors read them together in a 2026 analysis. A decade of records from science and patent databases fed network tools that map keywords, partnerships, and rising topics. The trails point in opposite directions.
Publications climbed steadily while patent filings fell over the same years. China and the United States dominate both trails, and two seed-technology firms stand out among patent holders. The authors offer the map as a planning aid for breeders and companies facing food security pressure, showing where effort concentrates and where intellectual property thickens.
