Abstract

The large plant screening program of the U. S. Department of Agriculture continues to reveal chemical compositions significant both to fundamental understanding of the plant kingdom and to future practical usage of selected species as crop plants. To date more than 5,000 seed samples from 160 plant families have been chemically ana- lyzed. The present paper reports results on 1,010 samples, representing 32 orders, 103 families, 465 genera, and 759 species of seed plants. Presentation of data follows the format used in the first paper of this series (1).
