Abstract:

Objective: Research on fruit development and seed oil accumulation of Kadsura coccinea can provide a theoretical basis for the cultivation and management of fruit development and the development and utilization of seed oil. Method: In this study, the phenotype, transverse diameter and shape index of fruits and seeds were observed at 8 different stages of fruit development of K. coccinea. The Soxhlet extraction, laser confocal microscopy and gas chromatography methods were used to observe and determine the oil content, oil body shape and distribution as well as fatty acid composition of the seeds. Result: The fruit development period of K. coccinea was about 110 days, which was able to be divided into three stages: green fruit stage (14?56 DAF, days after flowing), color turning stage (56?84 DAF), and red fruit stage (84?112 DAF). The growth curves of horizontal diameter, vertical diameter and mass of fruits and seeds showed a single "S" shape, which was in line with the Logistic regression model, with the determination coefficient as high as 0.967 2?0.998 6. From 14 to 98 DAF was the fruit growth period, and the horizontal diameter, vertical diameter and mass increased rapidly. At maturity, the horizontal diameter of fruit was 115.99 mm, the vertical diameter of fruit was 105.65 mm, and the mass of single fruit was 526.08 g. From 14 to 84 DAF was the seed growth period. At maturity, the horizontal diameter of seed was 12.38 mm, the vertical diameter of seed was 14.26 mm, and the mass of 100-seed was 47.85 g. The oil accumulation rule of seeds was "slow-fast-slow". The accumulation was slow at green fruit stage, rapid accumulation at color change stage, and slow accumulation at red fruit stage. The oil accumulation equation wasy = 56.261 2 · (1+ $ {\mathrm{e}}^{6.582\mathrm{ }\mathrm{ }\mathrm{ }\mathrm{ }\mathrm{ }\mathrm{ }1-0.102t} $ ) ?1. The seed oil body ofK. coccinea was spherical, and the volume became larger and the number increased, and gradually filled the whole cell with the development of seeds. A total of 16 fatty acids were detected during oil accumulation, mainly palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid, with the highest content of linoleic acid. The oil content of mature seeds of K. coccinea was up to 55.51 g·100 g?1, in which unsaturated fatty acids accounted for 77.10%, and the relative content of linoleic acid was 66.88%, belonging to high quality vegetable oils. Conclusion: The patterns of fruit development and seed oil accumulation of K. coccinea conform to the Logistic regression model. The Logistic equation can reflect the situation of fruit development and oil accumulation, which has important guiding significance for fruit production. K. coccinea seed has high oil content, regular oil shape and high oil quality, so that it has great potential and development value as plant edible oil.
