Fatty acid composition of f1 seeds in the cross of high oleic and high palmitic mutations in sunflower

The Fl hybrid seeds in the cross of a high oleic line LG26 with a high palmitic LG30 possessed dominant high content of oleic acid and intermediate content of both palmitic and palmitoleic acids. In the crosses of LG30 with five normal lines the differences in palmitic acid content between the parents and Fl showed on the partial dominance of normal palmitic acid content. One exception was full dominance for VIR721.
