Book Synopsis Plant Lipid Metabolism by : J.C. Kader
Download or read book Plant Lipid Metabolism written by J.C. Kader and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of papers that comprehensively describe the major areas of research on lipid metabolism of plants. State-of-the-art knowledge about research on fatty acid and glycerolipid biosynthesis, isoprenoid metabolism, membrane structure and organization, lipid oxidation and degradation, lipids as intracellular and extracellular messengers, lipids and environment, oil seeds and gene technology is reviewed. The different topics covered show that modern tools of plant cellular and molecular biology, as well as molecular genetics, have been recently used to characterize several key enzymes of plant lipid metabolism (in particular, desaturases, thioesterases, fatty acid synthetase) and to isolate corresponding cDNAs and genomic clones, allowing the use of genetic engineering methods to modify the composition of membranes or storage lipids. These findings open fascinating perspectives, both for establishing the roles of lipids in membrane function and intracellular signalling and for adapting the composition of seed oil to the industrial needs. This book will be a good reference source for research scientists, advanced students and industrialists wishing to follow the considerable progress made in recent years on plant lipid metabolism and to envision the new opportunities offered by genetic engineering for the development of novel oil seeds.

Book Synopsis Effects of Nitrogen on Sunflower Productivity in the Big Horn Basin by : Austen Alexandra Samet-Brown
Download or read book Effects of Nitrogen on Sunflower Productivity in the Big Horn Basin written by Austen Alexandra Samet-Brown and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The production of high quality confectionary sunflower seeds and sunflower seed oil is important in the production of this crop. Very little research has been done that looked at and documented the effect of nitrogen on sunflower hybrids, oil quality and confectionary seed quality components. Therefor studies were conducted in 2014 and 2015 to determine the effects of nitrogen rates and hybrids on sunflower growth, yield, oil content, oil quality, and confectionary seed quality and size on sunflowers being grown in the Big Horn Basin. Results from the study showed that the measured sunflower growth parameters and seed yields were not affected by the different rates of applied nitrogen fertilization. However, the different sunflower hybrids did impact the measured growth parameters and yield data. Sunflower plant height was inconsistent amongst hybrids throughout the growing seasons, however, in general, the two confection seed hybrids matured faster than the oil seed hybrid with hybrid Sierra maturing the slowest. Harvest weight results were also inconstant amongst the hybrids in 2014 and 2015. The head diameter measurement showed a significant difference amongst hybrids in both 2014 and 2015 where oil seed hybrids Defender Plus and Sierra had the largest head diameters of 52.8 and 56.1 centimeters in 2014 and 59.2 and 29.4 centimeters respectively in 2015. In regards to seed yields hybrids D9512 and Defender Plus were consistently yielding the highest whereas oilseed hybrid X9452 was consistently the lowest yielding sunflower hybrid. The oil quality, when looking at the proportion of saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids, were not significantly affected by varying rates of applied nitrogen fertilizer. However, there were a few individual fatty acids that were effected by nitrogen rates but these components contributed very little to the overall quality of the oil. The oil content percentage was significantly affected by nitrogen application in 2015 but not in 2014. The results show a higher oil content percentage of 33.5% at the lowest rate of applied nitrogen (84 kg N/hectare) and the lowest oil content percentage of 30.0% at the highest rate of applied nitrogen (336 kg N/hectare). These results are relatively consist with other studies done on this subject. The oil quality and content did differ between hybrids, in regards to quality we would expect this as two of our hybrids were high oleic hybrids and the other was a high linoleic hybrid. The oil content percentage was inconstant however in general hybrid Sierra seamed to produce the lowest oil content while hybrid Defender Plus and X9452 had higher oil content percentages. The confectionary sunflower seed quality was not impacted by nitrogen application rates or hybrid. Results from this study show that sunflower production in the Big Horn Basin of both confectionary seeds and oil seeds under irrigation can be a viable market for producers to enter. Results also suggest that a lower rate of nitrogen fertilizer could be used to obtain competitively high yields as well as a high quality product in regards to confectionary seeds and oil quality and content.

Book Synopsis Flavonoids of the Sunflower Family (Asteraceae) by : Bruce A. Bohm
Download or read book Flavonoids of the Sunflower Family (Asteraceae) written by Bruce A. Bohm and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-27 with total page 836 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flavonoids are secondary plant products that have previously been shown to be helpful in determining relationships among plant groups. This work presents comprehensively the occurrence, patterns of variation, and systematic and evolutionary importance of flavonoids in the sunflower family (Asteraceae), the largest family of flowering plants (23,000 species). It gathers together the more than 2500 reports of flavonoids in Asteraceae published between 1950 to the present and interprets these data in context of new taxonomic (especially generic) alignments. The authors discuss flavonoid patterns with reference to modern phylogenetic studies based on morphology and DNA data. This book provides, therefore, the most exhaustive synthesis and evaluation of the systematic and evolutionary import of flavonoids ever accomplished for any large family of angiosperms.
