This experiment was investigated from March 20 to September 20, 1960. It was investigated chlorophyll, carotene and ascorbic acid contents of edible plants in Korea, 64 with 132 species belonging to 62 families for the ascorbic acid and 116 species on the 64 families for the chlorophyll and carotene content. Carotene content varies with chlorophyll although the ratio of chlorophyll to carotene was not so high as that obtained by Beak and Redman (1). Where the chlorophyll content is abundant, it appears that the amounts of carotene and ascorbic acid are also plenty.
