Abstract
A canola line has been stabilized to produce seeds having an .alpha.-linolenic acid content of less than that of generic canola oil, more preferably less than or equal to about 7% .alpha.-linolenic acid relative to total fatty acid content of said seed and a total glucosinolate content of less than 18 .mu.mol/g of defatted meal, more preferably less than or equal to about 15 .mu.mol/g of defatted meal. This canola line has reduced sulfur content of less than or equal to 3.0 ppm, improved sensory characteristics and increased oxidative stability.
Claims18
Progeny of a canola plant line designated IMC 01, seeds of which have been deposited as ATCC accession number 40579, wherein said progeny produce seeds having an .alpha.-linolenic acid content of from about 1.9% to about 4.1% relative to the total fatty acid content of said seeds.
Progeny of a canola plant line designated IMC 01, seeds of which have been deposited as ATCC accession number 40579, wherein said progeny produce seeds having an .alpha.-linolenic acid content of 1.7% to about 7% and a palmitic acid content of from about 4.1% to about 4.9% relative to the total fatty acid content of said seeds.
Progeny of a canola plant line designated IMC 01, seeds of which have been deposited as ATCC accession number 40579, wherein said progeny produce seeds having an .alpha.-linolenic acid content of 1.7% to about 7% and a stearic acid content of from about 1.5% to about 2.3% relative to the total fatty acid content of said seeds.
Progeny of a canola plant line designated IMC 01, seeds of which have been deposited as ATCC accession number 40579, wherein said progeny produce seeds having an .alpha.-linolenic acid content of 1.7% to about 7% and a saturated fatty acid content of from about 5.6% to about 7.2% relative to the total fatty acid content of said seeds.
Progeny of a canola plant line designated IMC 01, seeds of which have been deposited as ATCC accession number 40579, wherein said progeny produce seeds having an .alpha.-linolenic acid content of 1.7% to about 7% and a linoleic acid content of from about 14.4% to about 25.8% relative to the total fatty acid content of said seeds.
Progeny of a canola plant line designated IMC 01, seeds of which have been deposited as ATCC accession number 40579, wherein said progeny produce seeds having an .alpha.-linolenic acid content of 1.7% to about 7% and an oleic acid content of from about 60.4% to about 72.5% relative to the total fatty acid content of said seeds.
A method of producing a canola plant line comprising the steps of:
- a) crossing a plant of a canola plant line designated IMC 01 and having ATCC accession number 40579, or progeny thereof, with an agronomically elite Brassica plant;
- and
- b) selecting at least one descendant of said cross, said descendant producing seeds having an .alpha.-linolenic acid content of from about 1.9% to about 4.1% relative to the total fatty acid content of said seeds.
