Abstract:The oilseed cover crop field pennycress (Thlaspi arvense L.) can be grown during the off-season for summer crops such as corn and soybeans. However, high erucic acid contents make oil from wild-types unsuitable for human consumption. Recent breeding efforts now offer a mutant strain (fae1-rod1 pennycress) with an altered fatty acid composition. In this study, fae1-rod1 pennycress oil is assessed for its fatty acid profile and tocopherol contents using gas chromatography and normal phase high-performance lipid … Show more
