Abstract:
The highest agricultural plant source of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), which are vital to human nutrition, is flax seeds, which have an oil content of around 36-40%. PUFA are quite prone to oxidation. As an Omega-6 fatty acid, linoleic acid makes up around 16 percent of the overall fatty acid content, whereas ALA makes up roughly 57%. Many experts have identified linseed as a modest double powerhouse in illness prevention due to its nutritional content. In present investigation, a total of ninety-two lines was evaluated for ten different biochemical parameters. Maximum protein percentage was found in genotype LMS-2015-81 followed by IC0585324 and SLS-140. The highest methionine content was investigated in genotype LMS-2015-22 tracked by IC0118861 and LMS-2015-42. While the highest proline amount was found in genotype IC049915 tracked by IC0498795 and IC0498843. The maximum phenol content was recorded in linseed line IC0096540 trailed by IC0498866 and LMS-2015-42. Maximum flavonoid content was contributed by genotype IC0448872 tracked by SLS-140. Maximum sugar content was recorded in genotype IC0967423 tracked by IC0448921 and IC0498538. Whereas, maximum antioxidant activity was evidenced in line IC0499156 tracked by IC0118861. While highest phytic content was recorded in linseed line IC0096672 tracked by IC0498866. Further these lines may be used to combine other traits in breeding programme to breed a high yielding cultivar along with nutrient rich.
