Camelina sativa seed is an underutilized oil source rich in omega-3 fatty acids; however, camelina oil is not fully explored for food applications. Its high omega-3 content makes it susceptible to oxidation, which may limit food applications. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to investigate the potential of camelina seed oil to form physically and oxidatively stable emulsions as a...

Seed oil, one of the major seed storage compounds in plants, is of great economic importance for human consumption, as an industrial raw material and as a source of biofuels. Thus, improving the seed oil yield in crops is an important objective. The GLABRA2 (GL2) gene in Arabidopsis thaliana encodes a transcription factor that is required for the proper differentiation of several epidermal cell...

high nitrogen and plant density cause increasing vegetative growth and reducing harvest index. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of cycocel at high nitrogen and plant density on safflower yield and yield components. for this purpose a field experiment was carried out as a factorial-split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications with esfahan 14 ...

Background & Aim: Milk thistle [Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn] is an annual or biennial plant, native to the Mediterranean area, which has spread in north and south of Iran. A fruit of milk thistle contains a relatively high amount (approx. 20%) of oil, which exhibits wound-healing, anti-burn, and hepatoprotective properties. Experimental: In this research, a pot experiment wa...

Background and Objectives: The extruded snacks with high content of calorie and fat and low content of protein, fiber is considered as a deleterious and harmful foodstuff for most of the consumers. Today, various techniques have been proposed to improve the quality of snacks. The use of fruits processing by-products to extruded snacks is one of the most important technologies that is proposed. ...
