Abstract
Variations in the proportions and iodine values of fats at different locations in the endosperm or embryo were studied for several different types of seed.
The variations in oil content and iodine value occur in systematic patterns with reference to the centre of the seed or in some cases the centre of each cotyledon. The patterns differ with different varieties of seed, in some from the centre to the periphery, in others along the vertical axis. There appears to be no connexion between the patterns of iodine value and variation in oil content.
