EXPANSION of industrial uses of soybeans has stimulated research on composition of the seed, particularly with respect to oil and protein content and iodine number of oil. As a consequence, the variability of composition has assumed importance, particularly as it is affected by genetic variation, environmental conditions such as climate and nutrition, and cultural practices such as date of planting. A knowledge of variability of seed compositional attri-
