Abstract Seeds of 20 African yam bean collections were evaluated for nutritive and anti‐nutritive contents. Anti‐nutrients were negatively correlated with protein and carbohydrate contents. Principal component analysis and the Fastclus procedure showed that collections with high anti‐nutrient contents had darker seed colour. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
