Several soybean (Glycine max) germplasms, such as Nishiyamahitashi 98-5 (NH), have an intense seaweed-like flavor after cooking because of their high seed S-methylmethionine (SMM) content. In this study, we compared the amounts of amino acids in the phloem sap, leaves, pods, and seeds between NH and the common soybean cultivar Fukuyutaka. This revealed a comparably higher SMM content alongside a higher free Met...
