Table I. Stearic acid content in the seed oil of the five screened high stearic acid mutants averaged for n homozygous M3 (2012), M4 (2013), or M5 (2014) lines.

The content of five fatty acids in seed oil of the four screened cv Forrest, Essex, Williams 82, and PI 88788 wild types also was averaged for n lines. Averages and sd are shown.
