Why is it important?
The results of this work revealed that the nutritional and antioxidative components of peanut seeds influenced by genotype. The highest phenolic content meant the highest antioxidant capacity. Nevertheless, no direct relation was observed between the nutritional characteristics and antioxidant power.
Perspectives
Crude oil contents of peanut genotypes were not statistically different. Oleic acid was the most abundant fatty acid in all genotypes, followed by linoleic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid and linolenic acid, respectively.
