Reanalysis of series 764 reveals that its genetic background comes from genotype ‘Thorne’ rather than genotype ‘Williams 82’. 525 SNPs were identified that met two criteria: (1) they were consistently polymorphic between series 764 plants and the ‘Williams 82’ reference genome in the RNA-seq dataset; (2) they were previously genotyped across the USDA germplasm [27]. A comparison of these SNPs to the all of the accessions in the USDA soybean accessions revealed ‘Thorne’ as a near-perfect match (99.2% identity), with a substantial gap to the next closest match (Washita at 74.2%). The reanalysis also confirmed that this panel of SNPs is completely polymorphic between the 764 series and ‘Williams 82’ (0% match)
