Abstract

EFFECT OF ACETYL SALICYLIC ACID ON FATTY ACID COMPOSITION OF GROUNDNUT (ARACHIS HYPOGAEA L.) SEEDS

Sunita Hariram Jadhav*, Sharad Baburao Bhamburdekar

ABSTRACT

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of foliar application of acetyl salicylic acid (ASA) on oil content and oil fatty acid composition of groundnut seeds (Cv. SB-11). The treatments comprised of different concentrations (5, 50, 100 and 200 ppm) of ASA. Gas liquid chromatographic analysis of the fatty acid methyl esters revealed that ASA treatments increased monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs). In contrast to it decreased content of total polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) was detected in seeds of groundnut plants treated with ASA. Results found higher contents of MUFAs of total fat as compared to saturated fatty acids and PUFAs. Among the MUFAs, significant content of oleic acid (18:1) was observed in seeds of 5 and 200 ppm ASA treated groundnut plants. In addition to it 200 ppm ASA effectively increased gamma linoleic acid (18:3n6). Similarly treatments of ASA found beneficial in increasing long chain saturated fatty acids such as arachidic acid (20:0) and behenic acid (22:0). It was reported that except 50 ppm ASA all the applied treatments of ASA increased total oil contents of seeds over control. Total trans fats were not detected in seeds of ASA treated plants.

Keywords: Acetyl salicylic acid, Fatty acid, Groundnut seed.
