The content of retrograded resistant starch of the RS<sub>3 </sub>type was determined in six plant species and their accessions. Besides sorghum and foxtail millet, plant genotypes were cultivated in Piešťany locality in the year 2003. There were significant differences in RS<sub>3</sub> and total starch content in analysed crops and their accessions. Chickpea and buckwheat had the highest average content of RS<sub>3</sub>, 5.2% and 3.8%, respectively. Millet and foxtail millet contained less RS<sub>3</sub>, 2.9% and 2.8%, respectively. Millet was rich in total starch. The lowest amounts of RS<sub>3</sub> were detected in sorghum (1.6%) and amaranth (1.2%). The lowest variation in the RS<sub>3</sub> content was detected within the set of millet accessions and the highest within amaranths.
