  • Mapping quantitative trait loci underlying genome-wide recombination rate and mating system differences in meadowfoam

    Creator:
    Kishore, Venkata Krishna
    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...

  • Physiological, Chemical and Genetic Studies in Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba)

    Creator:
    Zhang, Jun
    Abstract:
    Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba) is an oilseed crop with unique chemical characteristics. The ability to identify physiological maturity (PM) and harvest maturity HM of the crop would permit timely harvest of high quality seeds. However, changes of oil contents, fatty acid profile and glucosinolate contents, as well as seed quality during...
