The Complete Chloroplast Genome of Plukenetia volubilis Provides Insights Into the Organelle Inheritance. [PDF]
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]
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 ...

Nutritional Comparison of Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis) Residue with Edible Seeds and Nuts in Taiwan: A Chromatographic and Spectroscopic Study. [PDF]
Sacha inchi is a source of quality commercial oil in Taiwan. Oil extraction results in sacha inchi residue have not been utilized and not much investigated. Different edible seeds and nuts have different levels of nutrients. This study aims (a) to determine the oil, moisture, ash, protein, carbohydrate, type of fatty acid, resveratrol, and type of ...

Photosynthetic and Morphological Responses of Sacha Inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L.) to Waterlogging Stress. [PDF]
Sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L.) is an important oilseed crop that is rich in fatty acids and protein. Climate-change-related stresses, such as chilling, high temperature, and waterlogging can cause severe production loss in this crop. In this study, we investigated the photosynthetic responses of sacha inchi seedlings to short-term waterlogging ...
