RESUMO

During the first few days of nitrogen fixation activity by soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr) root nodules, d-chiro-inositol, myo-inositol, sucrose, α,α-trehalose, and maltose accumulate rapidly and reach concentrations several fold greater than concentrations in other plant organs. Concentrations of d-pinitol in nodules (≥1.0 milligrams per gram fresh weight) were similar to concentrations in leaf blades. The concentration of fructose in nodules was lower than concentrations in other plant organs.
