dc.description.abstract	Canavanine has been estimated in the dry seeds of three Canavalia species: C. ensiformis (L.) DC. (Jackbean), C. gladiata (Jacq.) DC, (Swordbean) and C. virosa (Roxb.) Wight et Arn. The study indicates that the commercial exploitation of Canavalia species as sources of canavanine would be best carried out on C. ensiformis since this has the highest content of the metabolite.
