Mechanical Harvesting of Lesquerella
Industrial Crops and Products, 1994Abstract Field trials were conducted to determine the suitability of using conventional combines for commercial harvesting of lesquerella. Controlled trials for evaluating the effect of operating variables on performance were made along with representative commercial harvesting operations.

Dehydration of lesquerella oil
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 1995AbstractThe dehydration of lesquerella oil has been accomplished for the first time. Dehydration was performed using sulfuric acid, sulfates and phosphates, acidic clay, and aluminum oxide as dehydration catalysts. Dehydration products were characterized by infrared (FTIR), ultraviolet (UV), and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H‐NMR) spectroscopies.

Synthesis of lesquerella‐based bisphosphonates
Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 2023AbstractHydroxy fatty acids (HFAs) have found wide use in today's market, ranging from industrial materials to pharmaceuticals. Castor oil, which is obtained from castor seeds, has served as a primary source of the most common HFA, ricinoleic acid, but also contains several undesirable compounds which pose severe health risks, the most notable being ...

Industrial Crops and Products, 2003
The genus Lesquerella is a promising source of hydroxy fatty acid (HFA). Within this genus, Lesquerella fendleri is a good candidate for domestication in the arid southwestern United States because it has high seed and oil yields, low seed dormancy, and low fruit dehiscence.

STUDIES IN THE GENUS LESQUERELLA
American Journal of Botany, 1939PAYSON IN 1922 completed a thoroughly creditable monograph of Lesquerella which is the standard reference on the genus. Since then Fernald (1933), Munz (1929, 1932), Wiggins (1933), Peck (1934), and Cory (1930) have added new species, which together with those proposed in the present paper strongly indicate that this chiefly westAmerican genus is not ...

Floral structure of Lesquerella fendleri
Industrial Crops and Products, 1995Abstract The fine structures of the floral nectaries and stomata of Lesquerella fendleri (Brassicaceae), an emerging new oilseed crop, were determined using scanning electron microscopy. The external morphology of nectaries and their location relative to other floral structures are described.

Calcite in Lesquerella ovalifolia Trichomes
Science, 1961By chemical analysis, trichomes of Lesquerella ovalifolia Rydb. have been shown to contain a high percentage of calcium carbonate. X-ray diffraction patterns showed that it was in the form of calcite. The calcite was inside the trichomes, and its depositional pattern conformed to the shape of the trichomes.

Cultural practices for lesquerella production
Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 1993AbstractWhileLesquerella fendleri has good potential of becoming a domestic, water‐efficient source of hydroxy fatty acids in the United States, little research has been done outside of Arizona to determine its environmental response and cultural requirements.

Rheology of modified Lesquerella gum
Industrial Crops and Products, 1999Abstract Lesquerella fendleri is a promising new oil-seed crop with potential for commercialization in the next few years. Its oil contains hydroxy fatty acids that have many potentially important industrial applications. In addition to the oil, L. fendleri seed contains seed-surface polysaccharides (SSP) or gum. The oil-extracted seedmeal containing
