Exploring Phylogenetic Relationships between Hundreds of Plant Fatty Acids Synthesized by Thousands of Plants.
more details ...
The seed lipids of three species of Entandraphragma (Meliaceae) contain the largest proportion (31-50%) of cis-vaccenic acid ever found in nature. The acid is not indicative of the family as a whole and is found as a major fatty acid in the seed of only one additional species, besides Entandraphragma, out of the 30 analyzed from this family. With the total oil comprising between 45 and 62% of Entandraphragma seed, these species should be considered as a source of undecadioic acid for the production of nylon 11. © 1984 AOCS Press.
