Influence of desiccation on the quality of soybean seeds

Abstract

The research results of the influence of desiccant Reglon Super, depending on the time of application, on the specific activity of peroxidases and biochemical composition of soybean seeds of the variety Nega 1 are presented. It was established that the treatment of soybean plants with desiccant Reglon Super at a dose of 1.5 l/ha led to an increase in the specific activity of enzyme in seeds compared to the control samples, regardless of the place of their formation on the plant. As a result of the study of biochemical composition of soybean seeds, depending on the placement on the plant and the time of application of desiccant Reglon Super, the differences in content of protein and fat were marked, but the amino acid composition changed to a greater degree.
