Evaluation of changes in fatty acid profile, grain, and oil yield of Carthamus tinctorius L. in response to foliar application of polyamine compounds under deficit irrigation conditions

The use of deficit irrigation techniques on olive orchards is the main trend aiming to optimize water savings while improving functional and sensory characteristics of oils from trees under deficit irrigation techniques. The brand hydroSOStainable has been defined for crops produced under water restriction conditions. HydroSOStainable olive oils obtained under two new regulated deficit irrigation and one sustained deficit irrigation treatments in “Arbequina” olive trees were evaluated by analyzing quality parameters, antioxidant activity, total phenol content, fatty acid profile, volatile compounds, and sensory descriptors. Results showed that some of these irrigation strategies improved the phenol content at “moderate” stress levels, slightly enriched the fatty acid profile (~3.5% increased oleic acid and simultaneously decreased saturated fatty acids), and increased some key volatile compounds and also several key sensory attributes. Therefore, hydroSOStainable olive oil may be more attractive to consumers as it is environmentally friendly, has a higher content of several bioactive compounds, and has improved sensory characteristics as compared to control (fully irrigated) oils.

Fatty Acid Compositions

Boron is a member of the metaloid group of elements and is an important essential microelement needed for normal crop growth and development. This research was conducted in 2015 in Hatay (Mediterranean region of Turkey) to determine foliar application of Boron effect on protein ratio, starch ratio and oil yield and oil components of corn. To evaluate the response of foliar application of boron to corn, four boron doses (control, 4, 6 and 8 mg/m2) were applied at the three growing stages (V2; 2 leaves with visible collars, V4; 4 leaves with visible collars,V2V4; half dosage was applied V2 and half dosage was applied V4). The experiment was carried out in a split plot design with three replicates using cultivar 82 May 70. Ears were harvested and randomly selected for analysis of protein ratio, starch ratio, oil yield and fatty acid composition. Even though there was no significant difference in Boron treatments in terms of protein and starch, significant difference was determined in oil yield and fatty acid composition. In general, foliar application of higher Boron doses (6, 8 mg /m2) increased oleic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid. In the early development period (V2), foliar application of boron caused an increase in the content of linoleic acid and linolenic acid of corn.
