Abstract
Abstract Seed oils from seven species belonging to four botanical families have been analysed for their fatty acid composition by using chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. Oils from six species are very interesting in containing high percentage (63.7–84.0%) of C 18 unsaturated acids. Chemical screening of seed oils reveals that the species producing highly unsaturated oils merit attention for evaluation as perspective crops.
