Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Closer row spacing of 37.5 cm out-yielded the wider 75 cm spacing by about 34% for oil yield.
- Association Early planting was associated with higher contents of C16:0, C20:0 and C18:1 fatty acids in sesame oil.
- Association Early planting was associated with a higher content of C20:1 fatty acid in sesame oil.
- Association Late planting was associated with higher contents of C18:2 and C18:3 fatty acids in sesame oil.
- Intervention effect Early planting gave greater contents of total saturated and mono-unsaturated fatty acids than late planting.
- Intervention effect Closer row spacing of 37.5 cm gave significantly higher contents of C20:1 and saturated fatty acids in sesame oil than the wider 75 cm spacing.
- Association Sesame seed produced in Virginia contained 6.8% more oil than seed produced in Texas.
- Recommendation Sesame could be produced in the mid-Atlantic region of the USA.
