Abstract
Oils extracted from plants have been used predominantly as edible oil. Soybean, peanut, rapeseed mustard, sunflower, safflower, Sesamum, linseed, castor and cotton seed are predominant oil crops. Global status of nine major and minor oil crops has been discussed which includes their classification, contribution, major growing countries and objectives. Major objectives in oil crop improvement are enhancement of seed and oil yield, quality of oil according to its use, i.e. edible or industrial uses, breeding of varieties which fit in different cropping systems and breeding biotic and abiotic stress resistant/tolerant varieties. Achievements in varietal development programme of nine oil crops in India have also been discussed and future research needs to meet the increasing demand have also been highlighted. This review describes developments in use of biotechnological tools in seven edible oil crops, namely, Brassica, soybean, sunflower, groundnut, Sesamum, linseed and safflower and also highlights the prospects of using markers in genetic improvement of these crops. Molecular markers reported for genetic diversity assessment, mapping and tagging genes/QTLs for different qualitative and quantitative traits and their use in marker-assisted selection have been presented.
