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

The use of petroleum ether by Soxhlet get Portulaca oleracea seed oil. The extracted yield of Portulaca oleracea seed oil was 16.8%±0.13%. Fatty acids compositions were determined from Portulaca oleracea seed oil by saponification,methylation and GC-MS. The results indicated that the oil from Portulaca oleracea seed was composed of 7 fatty acids. The results of GC-MS and area normalization method showed that the Portulaca oleracea seed oil mainly contained Palmitic acid(12.00%±0.60%),Linolenic acid(82.35%±0.64%),Stearic acid(3.94%±0.10%),11-Eicosenoic acid(0.21%),Eicosanoic acid(0.74%±0.05%),Behenic acid(0.56%±0.03%),Lignoceric acid(0.31%±0.03%). While unsaturated fatty acids composition(82.56%±0.64%) from Portulaca oleracea seed oil were mainly composed of linolenoic acid. Experimental results indicated that the Portulaca oleracea seed oil was a kind of functional oil which had abundant n-3 unsaturated fatty acids,with high nutritional value and phanmcotherapy efficacy.
