Popis:	Sunn hemp seeds contain several phytochemicals including fiber with potential phytopharmaceutical use. A study of 15 sunn hemp, Crotalaria juncea L., accessions demonstrated that total dietary fiber and protein content are significantly variable. As dietary fiber increases in the sunn hemp seed, protein decreases. Differences in total dietary fiber suggest that sufficient variability exists in this trait to allow enhancement in sunn hemp cultivars through plant breeding.
