- Abstract
- Camelina sativa is an oilseed plant that belongs
to the Brassicaceae family. Camelina was widely
grown in Europe and Russia until the 1940s for
the production of vegetable oil but later on higheryielding
crops displaced camelina. Recently, interest
in C. sativa has been renewed in some parts of
North America and Europe due to its high content
of unsaturated fatty acids suitable for the production
of soap, varnish, and biofuel. In fact, the oil
contained in its seeds is very rich in polyunsaturated
fatty acids such as linolenic acid (35% - 45%),
linoleic acid (15% - 20%), and a low proportion of
erucic acid (1% - 3%). It is also rich in antioxidants
such as tocopherols, which confers stability towards
oxidation. Camelina in comparison to other oilseed
plants, has a very short life cycle (85-100 days) and
is one of the most economical plant to grow thanks
to minimal input requirements1. For this reason C.
sativa can grow on marginal lands avoiding competition
with food crops. These properties, together
with its low nutrient demand, potentially make the
production of C. sativa oil cheaper than oils from
traditional crops such as soybean, sunflower and
rapeseed. Despite its potential, the main limitation
in camelina use is the lack of agronomic knowledge
as well as the limited information about the genetic
diversity of available germplasm. For this reason,
a better knowledge of camelina genetics becomes incumbent. (literal)
