Observation and measurement of fatty acids across the developmental period of the safflower seeds. Note: a The developmental process of the safflower seeds (the up panel and the down panel respectively refer to the external and longitudinal section characteristics of the seeds). Ovaries were colected at 2 DAF (immature stage), and then every 2 days until 28 DAF (mature seeds). Because no obvious changes were observed for the external characteristics of the seeds after 14 DAF, 18, 22 and 26 DAF are not shown in the up panel. The scale of all figures is the same. b The four leading fatty acids at fifteen time points during safflower seed development (mean ± SD, n = 3)
