1. Growth, yield, and oil content of Brassica species under Brazilian tropical conditions
ABSTRACT Brassica oilseed species are becoming increasingly popular for industrial uses, with emphasis on biodiesel. It is of importance to evaluate the yield and oil production potential of nontraditional oilseeds for use as feedstock in Brazil. In this study, growth, yield, and oil content and their correlations were determined for eight accessions of B. j

2. Environmental effect on sunflower oil quality
Abstract Sunflower is one of the most important oilseed crops and produces a high-quality edible oil. Balance of fatty acids in standard sunflower oil shows preponderance of linoleic rather than oleic acid, and conditions during seed development, such as temperature, changes the oleic/linoleic ratio of the oil. This work aimed to evaluate the environmental e

3. ConfiguraÃÃo e antecipaÃÃo de plantio da mamona em consÃrcio com a cultura do girassol / Arragement and early planting of castor bean intercropped with sunflower crop
A mamoneira (Ricinus communis) Ã tolerante a seca e cultivada para produÃÃo de Ãleo para uso industrial. Na regiÃo Nordeste os pequenos produtores cultivam a mamona consorciada algodÃo, feijÃo caupi, gergelim, girassol, milho, sorgo ou amendoim. Dois experimentos de campo foram conduzidos nos anos agrÃcolas 2008, 2009 e 2010, na Fazenda Experimental

4. Seed quality and optimal spatial arrangement of fodder radish
Besides the use of fodder radish (Raphanus sativus var. oleiferus Metzg.) as green manure plant cover crops and animal feed, the seeds have high oil content and low viscosity, ideal characteristics for the production of biodiesel. Studies related to the technology of seed production for this species are insufficient to define the best spatial arrangement of

5. Tratamento fungicida e qualidade de sementes de mamona / Fungicide treatment and quality of castor bean seeds
The rising interest in using biodiesel as an alternative energy source is turning some oleaginous crops, like castor bean (Ricinus communis L.), become very important. Although its importance, castor bean yields must have high quality seeds. There are no registered chemical products for castor bean crop; this study aimed to verify fungicide treatments in cas

6. Trichoderma spp. ON PLANT GROWTH AND BIOCONTROL OF Sclerotinia sclerotiorum AND SEED PATHOGENS OF CARTHAMUS (Carthamus tinctorius) / Trichoderma spp. NO CRESCIMENTO VEGETAL E NO BIOCONTROLE DE Sclerotinia slcerotiorum E DE PATÓGENOS EM SEMENTES DE CÁRTAMO (Carthamus tinctorius)
The cultivation of flowers is, in Brazil, very recent and little known species have a high ornamental potential, Cartamus is such a species and there are cultivars for the production of oil and as well as for ornamental pourposes. Being a recent crop in Brazil, little is known about its associated diseases, specially those that affect the seeds and the soil

7. Morphologic and physiological response of the castorbean (Ricinus communis L., sesame (sesamum indicum L.) and peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) to cycles of water deficit. / Respostas morfolÃgicas e fisiolÃgicas do amendoim, gergelim e mamona a ciclos de deficiÃncia hÃdrica
A pesquisa foi conduzida em casa de vegetaÃÃo no Campus do Pici da Universidade Federal do CearÃ, no perÃodo de janeiro a marÃo de 2006, com o objetivo de estudar a resposta das culturas da mamona (Ricinus communis L.), gergelim (Sesamum indicum L.) e amendoim (Arachis hypogaea L.) a ciclos de deficiÃncia hÃdrica na fase de crescimento vegetativo.

8. Engineering salt-tolerant Brassica plants: Characterization of yield and seed oil quality in transgenic plants with increased vacuolar sodium accumulation
Transgenic Brassica napus plants overexpressing AtNHX1, a vacuolar Na+/H+ antiport from Arabidopsis thaliana, were able to grow, flower, and produce seeds in the presence of 200 mM sodium chloride. Although the transgenic plants grown in high salinity accumulated sodium up to 6% of their dry weight, growth of the these plants was only marginally affected by

9. Redirection of tryptophan leads to production of low indole glucosinolate canola.
Cruciferous plants are known to produce over a hundred different mustard oil glycosides, which are derived from methionine, phenylalanine, or tryptophan. In oil-producing crops like Brassica napus (canola), the presence of indole glucosinolates in seed protein meals has decreased meal palatability and has limited their value as animal feed. We have transform

10. High-Oleate Oilseeds Fail to Develop at Low Temperature.
The fad2 mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana are deficient in activity of the endoplasmic reticulum oleate desaturase that is the main enzyme responsible for polyunsaturated lipid synthesis in developing seeds of oil crops. A comparison of wild-type and fad2 seeds developing on heterozygous (FAD2/-) plants was used as a model for genetically engineered high-olea
