  • What is cottonseed oil?
  • Cottonseed oil is a vegetable oil extracted from the seeds of the cotton plant after the cotton lint has been removed. It¡¯s composed of linters (10%), cotton shell (40~45%) and kernel. the oil content of cotton seed is 15%-25%, the oil content of kernel is 30%-40% after decorticating.
  • Can cottonseed be used as a biofuel?
  • As a byproduct in cotton production, cottonseed has excellent potential for use as a source of sustainable, high quality vegetable oil, biofuel and proteins because of its abundance that is expected to grow as the demand for cotton fiber continues to increase.
  • What is the difference between cotton oil and cottonseed oil?
  • Cotton (Gossypium sp.) is a commercially important annual fiber crop; cottonseed oil (CSO) is an important product extracted from one of the byproducts of cottonseeds. Oil yield varies with cotton species, places, and season when cotton grown and extraction methods used for oil extraction.
  • What is cottonseed oil (CSO)?
  • The worldwide cottonseed production in 2019¨C2020 was 43 million metric ton (Kumar et al. 2022). Cottonseed oil (CSO) is the by-product of cotton manufacturer; extracted from the decorticated and delinted cottonseed for their used as edible oil and industrial applications (Orhevba and Efomah 2012; Shah 2017).
  • Can trienoic fatty acids improve cotton seed germination?
  • Gao, L. H., Chen, W., Xu, X. Y., Zhang, J., Singh, T. K., Liu, S. M., et al. (2020). Engineering trienoic fatty acids into cottonseed oil improves low-temperature seed germination, plant photosynthesis and cotton fiber quality.
  • Is there genetic variation in cottonseed oil and protein content?
  • The focus of cotton breeding on high yield and better fiber quality has substantially reduced the natural genetic variation available for effective cottonseed quality improvement within Upland cotton. However, genetic variation in cottonseed oil and protein content exists within the genus of Gossypium and cultivated cotton.
