High‐resolution, natural abundance 13 C NMR spectra of intact, viable soybeans have been obtained by Fourier transform techniques. The spectra are interpreted in terms of the relative concentrations of the major fatty acids present in the soybean triglycerides. This nondestructive analysis is sufficiently fast and accurate to permit the selection of individual soybeans for use in a genetic breeding program designed to reduce the undesirably high linolenic acid content of soybean oil.
