Abstract

The composition of low molecular weight carbohydrates in 26 samples of cultivated and wild soybeans were determined by gas liquid chromatography. Sucrose and stachyose were found to be major sugars in their seeds. The wild and cultivated types were different in their carbohydrate compositions. The cultivated types showed higher sucrose, galactopinitol A, galactinol and digalactosylglycerol contents and a lower stachyose content than the wild types.
