AbstractBackground: The SBT (Subtilisin-like serine protease) protein, acting as a crucial serine protease, exerts multifaceted roles in orchestrating plant growth, development, and defense responses by modulating cell wall characteristics and activities of extracellular signaling molecules. Despite extensive investigations into SBT family genes in model dicotyledonous plants like Arabidopsis, no studies have yet delved into the SBT gene family in soybean.
