It is also called by several others name e.g.; Japanese barnyard millet, ooda, sawan, sanwa and sanwank, nutritionally too, it is a good source of protein, which is highly digestible. Protein were estimated by the method of Lowry&rsquo;s et al.(1951).Total soluble protein was extracted from seed flour. The total soluble protein in all verities of barnyard millet (VL 21, VL 29, VL 172, VL 181, and VL 146) is calculated. The maximum (3.4 mg/g) and (3.5 mg/g) concentration were observed in verities VL 181 and VL 146 respectively while minimum in VL 121 and VL 128(2.6 and 2.8 mg/g).Moderate concentration (3.2 mg/g) was observed in VL 172.The variation in concentration of total soluble protein are due to the genetic variations among the different varieties. Proteins are separated on Polyacrylamide gel on the bases of molecular size and net charges. The present study characterise best verities on the bases of total soluble protein is VL 181 and VL 146,which is taken as good source of protein whose depend on low cost cereals.</span></p>
