Accumulation of oil and fatty acids in developing seeds of sesame. The seeds of the sesame cultivars (S. indicum) Zhongzhi 14 and Miaoqian grew in two neighboring plots of a field in the institute farm. Fatty acid composition of oil was determined by the GC method. Oil contents (A) were calculated from the total fatty acids contents. B, C: Dynamic changes in fatty acid composition in developing seeds of sesame cultivars Zhongzhi 14 (B) and Miaoqian (C).
