A Review of Fatty Acids and Genetic Characterization of Safflower (Carthamus Tinctorius L.) Seed Oil
Safflower, Carthamus tinctorius L., is an annual oilseed crop that is cultivated on small plots all over the world. The seed oil content ranges from 20% to 45%; the oil is high in linoleic acid, an unsaturated fatty acid that aids in lowering the blood cholesterol level. Thus, safflower has long been used as medical plant in many countries, especially in China and India. However, for industrial...
متن کاملEffect of plant growth regulators on oil yield and biodiesel production of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.)
The aim of the present investigation was to determine the effect of plant growth regulators viz., kinetin, chlorocholine chloride (CCC) and salicylic acid (SA) on achene yield and oil quality of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) cv. Thori pertaining to biodiesel production. The growth regulators were applied at 10M as foliar spray during flowering (140 days after sowing). Kinetin was highly e...
متن کاملMultiple criteria selection of crosses for improvement of yield in Safflower, Carthamus tinctorius L
The F1 along with parents of a 4 x 6 line x tester crosses in safflower were studied and seven parameters, i.e., D 2 7 based on 7 characters and D24 based on yield and its 3 direct componenets and mid parent value (MP-Y), F1 mean (F1-Y), relative heterosis (RH-Y), biparental average GCA (MPGCA-Y) and SCA effect (SCA-Y) for yield were estimated. Twenty four selected crosses were studied for segr...
متن کاملBreeding improvements in safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.): A review
Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) is an oil seed crop that is grown not only for its edible oil but also for its applications as animal feed and plant-made pharmaceuticals. Historically, biometrical genetics played a crucial role in the improvement of safflower seed yield and its components, phenologic and morphologic traits, and nutritional properties including oil, fatty (linoleic, oleic, s...
متن کاملQuality evaluation of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) cultivars
Abstract Safflower is a minor oilseed crop in Australia where the market is dominated by canola, cottonseed and sunflower. Safflower however offers an alternative oilseed crop in marginal areas. This study was designed to evaluate current safflower lines and to determine their potential value both for edible oil and meal for animal feed. Two sets of samples were analysed. The first was a collec...
