Abstract

A novel soybean seed and plant designated A17 having ATCC Accession No. 40539 and its descendents are provided. Such soybean exhibits an unusually low linolenic acid (C18:3) content of less than 2.5% by weight based upon the total fatty acid content in the endogenously formed vegetable oil. Also, the palmitic acid (C16:0) content of the endogenously formed vegetable oil is elevated and is at least 15.1% by weight based upon the total fatty acid content.
