Exploring Phylogenetic Relationships between Hundreds of Plant Fatty Acids Synthesized by Thousands of Plants.

The physicochemical properties of banaba seed oil were determined,and fatty acid compositions of seed oil were also determined by GC/MS.The results were as following:refractive index was 1.4820,iodine value was 132.3 gI/100 g.Total 12 fatty acids were determined out.The content of linoleic acid was 74.57%,oleic acid was 8.38%,palmiyic acid was 6.68%,and stearic acid was 4.26%.The content of unsaturated fatty acids was 85.76%.Branched chain acid and odd number carbon acid(hexadecanoic acid、tricosanoic acid) were first determined out in banaba seed oil.Banaba seed oil has a developing potential as a healthy oil resource.
