Abstract

As a fundamental approach to the problem of amino acid metabolism in soybean, changes in content of twenty-three free amino acids, two acidic peptides, ammonia, ethanolamine, urea and seventeen total amino acids of cotyledon, hypocotyl and root of soybean during germination were determined with an amino acid analyzer. Glycine Max M. var. T201 (non-nodule-forming) and Glycine Max M. var. T202 (nodule-forming) were used for this experiment. The content and composition of free and total amino acids of cotyledon in both T201 and T202 differ from those of other tissues in any stage of germination. How-ever, no significant difference between these two varieties of soybean has been recognized in patterns of free and total amino acids changes during germination.
