Abstract
  • Purslane is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, amino acids, and vitamins. The aim of this research was to study the effect of different nitrogen levels and NO3--N/NH4+-N ratios in the nutrient solution on the yield and on the oxalic acid content and fatty acid profile in purslane grown in a soilless culture system. Two experiments were carried out to test different levels of nitrogen: 1) 8-12-16 mmol L-1; 2) 0-12-24-36 mmol L-1. A third experiment was carried out maintaining the N level fixed (12 mmol L-1) but varying the NO3--N/NH4+-N ratio: 60/40, 40/60, 0/100. The results indicated that plants grew increasing nitrogen level up to 36 mmol L-1. Nitrogen supplied in both forms NO3- and NH4+ produced bigger plants compared to N supplied in NH4+ form only. Nitrogen did not significantly influence the polyunsaturated fatty acid content in the canopy. Significant trends were found for a-linolenic acid (LNA; 18:3 n-3) and linoleic acid (LA; 18:2 n-6) indicating a favourable accumulation of omega-3 fatty acid with increasing N; palmitic acid decreased by increasing N and by switching NO3-/NH4+ ratio toward NH4+ level in the nutrient solution, but using 0/100 NO3-/NH4+ decreased plant quality. Increasing N lowered oxalic acid production and palmitic acid content enhancing purslane nutritional quality. Keeping high N level in the nutrient solution with a 40/60 NO3-/NH4+ ratio would give the best results in terms of yield, oxalic acid concentration and fatty acid profile. (literal)
