The glyceride structures of 20 soybean varieties were determined by silver ion chromatography. Plots of the percentage of each triglyceride vs. the percentage of its constitutent fatty acids revealed no genetic variants that had not been found previously by stereospecific analysis. The results deviated significantly from the amounts predicted by the 1‐random‐2‐random‐3‐random hypothesis of glyceride distribution. This deviation can be explained by a noncoincidence of the peak biosynthesis of oleic and linoleic acids during maturation of the beans.
