  • Which countries produce the most sesame seeds?
  • Four countries, India, China, Myanmar, and Sudan, contribute >60% to the total world production of sesame seeds. In old literature, the sesame seed was referred to as the ¡°queen of oilseeds,¡± and sesame oil is among the first oils known and consumed by man.
  • What is a sesame seed?
  • In old literature, the sesame seed was referred to as the ¡°queen of oilseeds,¡± and sesame oil is among the first oils known and consumed by man. The seed is flat, pear-shaped, ca. 2¨C3 mm long, and 2¨C3.5 mg in weight.
  • Can lignans improve the quality and yield of sesame oil?
  • These findings provide a molecular platform for improving the quality and yield of sesame oil, potentially benefiting breeding programs aimed at developing sesame cultivars with higher levels of unsaturated fatty acids. Major lignans in sesame seeds include sesamin and sesamolin, with higher concentrations found in white-seeded cultivars .
  • Is Sesame an underexploited oil seed crop?
  • Pathak, K., Rahman, S. W., Bhagawati, S., & Gogoi, B. (2017). Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), an underexploited oil seed crop?: Current status, features and importance ¨C A review.
  • Can genetic engineering improve oil content and seed yield in sesame plants?
  • Genetic engineering techniques have been used to enhance the oil content and seed yield in sesame plants by targeting essential enzymes involved in oil synthesis, including diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT), phospholipid diacylglycerol acyltransferases (PDAT), fatty acid desaturases (FAD), and cytochrome b 5 (Muthulakshmi et al., 2021).
  • What is the difference between crude and refined sesame oil?
  • The crude and refined oils vary significantly regarding the composition of minor components, especially lignans (see later). In Western countries, crude sesame oils are refined (neutralization, acid bleaching, and deodorization) to produce several grades of refined sesame oil, each with a light color and a bland flavor and taste.
