Extract

1. The aneurin content of samples of whole oat grain representing six commonly used varieties grown in different districts in Scotland and Wales did not vary widely and there were no appreciable varietal or geographical differences.

2. There was a significant positive correlation between aneurin and protein content (r = 0·42).

3. During the growth of the oat plant from the flowering stage a steady storage of aneurin in the kernels was observed until the crop was harvested, and there was a simultaneous decrease in the aneurin content of the dry matter of the hulls, leaves and straw, suggesting a translocation of aneurin from the leaves to the kernels during the maturation of the plant.
