“…Oil with high total unsaturated fatty acid level is healthier for human consumption and helps in regulating blood cholesterol ratios by reducing low density lipoprotein levels [8,9]. This leads to significant reduction in risk ratios for coronary heart diseases [10,11].…”

“…Its seeds have a high oil content, 46.62%, and a significant amount of proteins, 13.75%, typical characteristics of oleaginous species, and can be a good source for economic exploitation (Silva et al, 2010). The observed lipid content (46.62%) in P. aquatica seeds was higher than that found in Glycine max L. (19.0-31.0%) (Sharma et al, 2014;Sheykhbaglou et al, 2018) and Sterculia striata St Hil (23.9%) seeds (Fráguas et al, 2015), and similar to that of the seed of Helianthus annuus L. (35.0-42.0%) (Premnath et al, 2016) and Arachis hypogaea L. (44.0-56.0%) (Kaya et al, 2009). P. aquatica an excellent fount basis for developing well adapted and high yielding alternative oilseeds from the native flora for sustainable biodiesel production in Northeastern Brazil (Harand et al, 2016).…”

The conservation of seed quality during storage is important to perform the maintenance and conservation of germplasm banks. Several native species of Brazil are intolerant to desiccation to desirable levels for conservation during storage is necessary to develop specific technologies for their conservation. The objective of this research was to evaluate the physiological quality of Paquira aquatica seeds submitted to drying periods. The study was carried out using seeds of P. aquatica dried at a temperature of 35 ºC, the following exposure times: 0 (no drying), 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours. Before and after each period of drying samples for the evaluations, the data were submitted to analysis of variance and regressionat level of 5%. The seeds of P. aquatica were dispersed with very high water content and a small reduction in its physiological value agrees quality, allowing the seeds to characterize this as a recalcitrant species. The drying temperature is 35 ºC until the viable 24 hours after this period the water content of seed reduced from 55% to 43%, which was considered the critical level for desiccation of seeds of P. aquatica. Because it reduces the values of first count, germination, rate of germination and growth of seedlings.The drying temperature the 35 ºC until the viable 24 hours, whit small reduction in its physiological quality seed P. aquatica.

“…Sunflower seed contains 35–42% oil and is naturally rich in linoleic acid (55–70%) and consequently poor in oleic acid (20–25%). [ 13 ]. Research shows that sunflower oil may reduce both total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and offer antioxidant properties [ 14 ].…”

The sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seed and sprout is a ubiquitous crop with abundant nutrients and biological activities. This review summarizes the nutritional and medical importance currently recognized but under-researched concerning both seed and sprout highlighting the potential benefits of their phytochemical constituents including phenolic acids, flavonoids and tocopherols. Furthermore, the dynamic metabolite changes which occur during germination and biological activities are evaluated. The aim is to provide scientific evidence for improving the dietary and pharmaceutical applications of this common but popular crop as a functional food.
