Knockout of the soybean (Glycine max) betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase genes GmBADH1 and GmBADH2 using CRISPR/Cas12i3 enhances the aroma of soybeans. Soy milk made from the gmbadh1/2 double mutant seeds exhibits a much stronger aroma, which consumers prefer; this mutant has potential for enhancing quality in soy-based products.
