“…Reductions in oil yield as the economic yield may be related to reductions in seed production, oil content of seeds, or both (Yeilaghi et al, 2012). According to our results, it seems that oil content is of minor contribution to the overall oil yield and accordingly less affected by drought stress, which is consistent with the findings of Abbadi et al (2008), who observed similar effects for nitrogen supply.…”

Safflower is one of the most adapted oilseed crops to the drought-prone arid lands. This experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of water deficiency on some physiological traits such as proline content, soluble carbohydrate content, relative water content (RWC), and seed quality using 64 safflower genotypes grown under normal and water-deficient field conditions. Plants were grown under normal irrigation until the branching growth stage, when water deficiency was applied to the plants. Results of combined analysis of variance showed the significant effects of genotype, water deficiency, and their interactions on the tested traits. RWC, seed oil content, and oil yield significantly decreased whereas proline, soluble carbohydrate, and protein content increased in response to water deficiency. Cluster analysis divided genotypes into 3 groups of sensitive, tolerant, and semitolerant genotypes under water-deficient conditions. The second group (tolerant group) possessed the lowest seed yield loss due to water stress and produced the highest seed protein content and seed oil yield under water-deficient conditions. The superior seed yield and quality was closely related to the physiological properties of the plants, resulting in higher leaf proline, carbohydrate, and RWC under water-deficient conditions. The results suggest that leaf proline content, carbohydrate content, and RWC would be useful traits to select for water stress-tolerant plants in safflower.

“…The cultivated safflower seed oil content are 11%-47% (Weiss, 1983;Knowles, 1989;De Haro et al, 1991;Dajue et al, 1993;Fernandez-Martinez et al, 1993;Koutroubas et al, 2009;Rudra Naik et al, 2010;Yeilaghi et al, 2012;Agrawal et al, 2013;Fernández-Cuesta et al, 2014). According to our results, oil content in wild species of safflower was lower (10.5%-20.4%) than that of cultivated safflowers.…”

Safflower is an important oilseed crop for the dry regions of the world. In the present study, we aimed to find out the seed oil content and composition of the wild relatives of safflower. For this purpose, 71 populations from 5 naturally growing Carthamus species were collected from Turkey: Carthamus dentatus (30 accessions), Carthamus lanatus (30 accessions), Carthamus persicus (2 accessions), Carthamus glaucus (6 accessions), and Carthamus tenuis (3 accessions). Our research covered all naturally growing safflower species in the flora of Turkey. The seeds belonging to 71 accessions were germinated in cabinets and transferred to vials in order to obtain seedlings and then sown in the field manually. After harvesting, the seed oil content (%) and fatty acid compositions were determined. The seed oil content ranged between 10.50% and 20.40% in all accessions. Thirteen fatty acids, mainly linoleic (58.8% to 82.6%), oleic (7.3% to 22.8%), and palmitic acids (4.8% to 8.8%) were determined. The fatty acid compositions were more or less similar in all investigated species; however, the seed oil contents were different. For the evaluation of fatty acid properties as a taxonomic character, cluster analysis was performed. The dendrogram based on the fatty acid ratios discriminated section Carthamus and section Atractylis of the genus Carthamus; however, the resulting tree was not compatible with the previously constructed phylogeny trees in detail.
