The importance of sulphur in oilseed production – A South Asian context

Sulphur (S) is essential for the quality of oilseed crops, ranking as the fourth major nutrient after nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K). While crops need sulphur in slightly lower amounts...

Genes and QTLs discovery for sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) breeding traits: A review

Sesame is a multi-purpose high-value oilseed crop, which can beused in the food, feed, and cosmetics applications. The low yield of sesame is due to the lack of high-yielding and locally adapted varieties,...

Genome-wide association study (GWAS) identifies genetic loci and candidate genes for variation in protein and oil content in Sesamum indicum L.

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is an ancient diploid oilseed crop valued for its high oil content, quality protein, unsaturated fatty acids, and antioxidants. The emerging research focuses on the utilization...

Current trends and future directions in avocado oil research: An overview and a bibliometric analysis across two time points

Avocados, including the peels and seeds, have beneficial nutritional value and can be processed into oils. To understand the trends and promote the use of avocado waste, it is essential to ascertain...

Worldwide rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) research: A bibliometric analysis during 2011–2021

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is the world's second produced oilseed and accounts for nearly 12% of world major vegetable oil production. For the last 10 years, the production, planting area, and yield...

Comparative advantages of chemical compositions of specific edible vegetable oils
