The Complete Chloroplast Genome of Plukenetia volubilis Provides Insights Into the Organelle Inheritance. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2021 Plukenetia volubilis L. (Malpighiales: Euphorbiaceae), also known as Sacha inchi, is considered a promising crop due to its high seed content of unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs), all of them highly valuable for food and cosmetic industries, but the genetic basis of oil biosynthesis of this non-model plant is still insufficient.

The Evolution of Lipidomics during Oil Accumulation of Plukenetia volubilis Seeds. [PDF]
Plants (Basel)Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) is a valuable oilseed crop with a high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). However, there is a lack of in-depth understanding of the lipidomics in Sacha inchi seeds (SIDs). Saturated fatty acids occupied more than half of the proportion (59.31%) in early development, while PUFAs accounted for 78.92% at ...
