Journal ArticleDOI
Mutant Sunflowers with High Concentration of Saturated Fatty Acids in the Oil
TL;DR: All sunflower mutants with altered seed fatty acid compositions showed variation in fatty acid composition among the seeds of the original plant, which indicated that the fatty acid changes were controlled by the genotype of the embryo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of seed oil content and fatty acid composition in sunflower through the analysis of intact seeds, husked seeds, meal and oil by near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy
TL;DR: In this article, the potential of near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) to estimate the oil content and fatty acid composition of sunflower seeds was evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selection of wild and cultivated sunflower for resistance to a new broomrape race that overcomes resistance of the Or5 gene
TL;DR: The high frequency of broomrape resistance to race F observed in the perennial wild species, as well as the resistance found in wild annual and cultivated germplasm, indicates that development of sunflower cultivars resistant to this new race of the parasite is feasible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stearoyl-ACP and oleoyl-PC desaturase genes cosegregate with quantitative trait loci underlying high stearic and high oleic acid mutant phenotypes in sunflower.
TL;DR: Results provide strong support about the role of fatty acid desaturase genes in determining fatty acid composition in the seed oil of sunflower.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sunflower mutant containing high levels of palmitic acid in high oleic background
TL;DR: A new sunflower mutant, CAS-12, was obtained, which has both high palmitic and high oleic acid contents, and also a substantial amount of palmitoleic acid, which will increase the range of potential uses of sunflower oil.
