Oil content and fatty acid composition of seeds of Guizotia Cass (Compositae)
1997-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Seeds of Guizotia abyssinica and wild Guizotia were analysed for oil content and fatty acid composition by multisequential and gas chromatographic methods, respectively. The oil content of G abyssinica ranged from 416 to 436 g kg-1 (weight per kg dry matter of seeds) and that of the wild Guizotia taxa from 214 to 328 g kg-1. Two unsaturated fatty acids (linoleic (54.3-72.8, weight percent of total oil) and oleic (...
