CANOLAÖL MIT NIEDRIGEM LINOLENSÄURE- UND SCHWEFELGEHALT

摘要

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, or 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.
