“…The yield level of legumes influences their fat and protein contents. For example, 100-seed weight is positively correlated with oil content in Ricinus communis (Severino et al 2015). In this study, the TFC in peanut was negatively correlated with plant and pod characteristics.…”

“…Based on this information, there is further need to study the ACS-001-CRSP for its capacity of adjustment in the growth of root system and aerial part, as a defense strategy to abiotic stresses such as water deficit and salt stress, which should lead to greater stability in the field. Variations in the biometric characteristics of the seeds can be attributed to various factors, from physiological maturity to differences in genetic make-up, so that such situations act directly on the proliferation and development of cells that constitute the embryo axis and reserve tissues (Severino et al, 2015). According to Paes et al (2015), due to the large number of varieties, the oil content may vary from 44-55% of the seeds' dry mass.…”

The objective of this work was to identify, through the use of multivariate analysis, the spontaneous accesses of castor bean that show promising characteristics for inclusion in genetic improvement programs of this culture in Brazil. The study was conducted at the Paulista State University, Jaboticabal Campus. The accesses of castor bean seeds obtained were identified as ACS-001-CRSP, ACS-001-JASP, ACS-001-MASP, ACS-001-SESP, ACS-002-JASP, ACS-002-SESP and ACS-003-JASP, from the municipalities of Jaboticabal, Monte Alto, Santa Ernestina and from the District of Córrego Rico. The seeds' biometric variables and germination potential were measured, in addition to the biomass accumulation of the seedling's vegetative parts. The experimental design was completely randomized, with seven treatments and four replications. The original data was standardized and submitted to multivariate analysis of principal components and grouping. Through the results obtained, it is possible to reduce the number of original variables into two latent variables with discriminant power between the castor bean accesses, being the multivariate analysis efficient in this process. The castor bean accesses ACS-001-CRSP and ACS-001-MASP are promising for introduction in genetic improvement programs of this culture.

“…Spectral resemblance to light seeds (Figure 2b) indicates that light seeds contained less oil compared to medium and heavy seeds. Severino et al [6] observed very small variations of oil content (percentage) in seeds weighing between 250 and 450 mg. Thus, we assume there was little variation in oil content between medium and heavy seeds and oil content in the seeds could be regarded as an indicator of castor seed viability.…”

“…This information is for the viable and non-viable seeds' assigned to ricinoleic acid, which contains an OH group at C12 [6,10]. The smaller peak for the seed coat is most probably due to water as the seed coat is not expected to contain high amounts of oils [6].…”

“…The variation in the seed lot relates to the germination ability required for initial plant establishment. It also gives an indication of oil recovery from the castor seeds as heavy seeds contain higher oil content than light seeds [6]. Additionally, seed weight is positively correlated with the germination ability of the seeds, i.e., heavier seeds have better performance than light seeds [4].…”

Characterisation of Castor (Ricinus communis L.) Seed Quality Using Fourier Transform Near-Infrared Spectroscopy in Combination with Multivariate Data Analysis

Abstract:The potential of single-seed near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy was investigated to characterise castor seeds based on their seed viability and seed oil content. Distinct differences between viable and non-viable seeds were observed in the principal component analysis (PCA) analysis. Furthermore, the PCA compared heavy and medium seeds with light seeds, which were comparable to the clusters of viable and non-viable seeds, respectively. Prediction accuracies of 98.7% and 99.6% were obtained with the partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) model with a classification error rate of 0.8% and 1.1% for the training set and test set, respectively. The NIR spectral regions having chemical information from the oil in castor seeds were found to be vital for determination of seed viability.
