Abstract:

The quantity and quality traits of seed, grain weight as well as oil and fatty acids content were investigated to research on the fruit and seed difference of different group of Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge. The result demonstrated that number of mature fruit, fruit dried weight, number of seed and grain weight showed significant difference, while 7# group was better than the other groups and the corresponding valve was 8.9±0.4, (39.40±0.8) g, (323.5±0.5) and (809.1±9.5) g, respectively. The oil and fatty acids contents of different group also showed difference and 7# group had higher oil content and fatty acids content of carbon number ≤18, which was (59.27±0.42)% and 87.75%, respectively.
