Abstract:: Cuphea laminuligera Koehne and Cuphea lutea Rose in Koehne are undomesticated species having potential as oilseed crops. Genetic markers and mating systems have not been described for these species. Our objectives were to survey these species for allozyme variation, analyze the segregation and linkage of polymorphic loci, estimate autofertility and...

Abstract:: Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Bentham; Order: Brassicales; Family: Limnanthaceae) is a self-compatible, predominantly allogamous, insect pollinated species. Meadowfoam oil is a source of novel unsaturated very-long-chain (VLC) seed oils (C₂₀ and C₂₂) with low concentrations of saturated fatty acids (typically less than 2%) and outstanding oxidative stability. Here we report the...

Abstract:: Cuphea is an herbaceous genus having species whose seed storage lipids are predominantly medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). Cuphea lanceolate Ait, and Cuphea viscosissima Jacq. are central to the breeding of Cuphea as a new commercial source of MCTs. The objectives of this thesis were to develop a reliable method to extract...
