This paper presents the development of a fuzzy expert system (FES) for determination of α-linolenic acid content of eggs, obtained from hens fed dietary flaxseed. Based on experimental values FES models were designed using MATLAB 6.5 fuzzy logic toolbox in Windows XP running on Intel 1.9 Gh environment. It was used time and flaxseed ratio as input parameters and linolenic acid content as output. There was a good correlation ( R2 = 0.9983) between experimental values and FES (P < 0.05, t-test).

Recently, the application of the conventional rule based expert system for disease risk determination in medical domains has increased. However, a major limitation to the effectiveness of the rule based expert system approach is the sharp boundary problem that leads to underestimation or overestimation of boundary cases, which ultimately affects the accuracy of their recommendation. In this paper, an expert driven approach is used to investigate the viability of a fuzzy expert system in the determination of risk associated with coronary heart disease with regards to the sharp boundary problem in rule based expert system.

The influence of transplanting time on the growth of evening primrose (Oenothera biennis L.) was investigated for 3 yr. Delaying transplanting reduced the yield of seed in two of these years. The amount of oil in the seed was not influenced by time of transplanting, and only in one year did the γ-linolenic acid content of the oil decrease with delays in transplanting. Key words: Evening primrose, transplanting date, oil content, γ-linolenic acid
