Abstract

The chemical compositions of Perilla frutescens (L.) Britt. and Mosla punctulata J.F. Seeds have been studied. The results showed the fatty oil in the seeds reached 40.18% and 20.62%,the main components of fatty acid are linolenic acid ,linolic acid ,oleic acid,palmitic acid ,stearic acid etc ,and the content of unsaturated fatty acid of its seed oil reached 92.759% and 92.990% respectively.Its seed oil had higher nutrient value and the contents of amino acid and mineral elements in their seeds were abundant. The shape and size of seed and its ornamentation character of seed surface were the important index of identification between these two kinds of seeds.
