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 ...
