Abstract

Total lipids, constituting 1.7-2.2%, from 7 breeding var. of 5 legumes, viz. the cow pea (Vigna catiang), field bean (Dolichos lablab), red gram (Cajanus cajan), horse gram (Dolichos biflorus, 2 var.), and black gram (Phaseolus mungo, two var.), were extracted with chloroform/methanol, purified (Sephadex G-25), resolved by silicic acid column chromatography, and analysed for component fatty acids by gas chromatography. Neutral lipids, which were mostly triglycerides carrying 17-32% of total sterols (15-20% free and 2-11% as esters), constitute 46-52% of the total lipids, phospholipids 35-40%, and glycolipids 10-12%. All 7 legume var. showed similar proportions of lipid classes. In 5 var., the neutral lipids resembled phospholipids in fatty acid composition, but this was not so in the 2 black gram var. The latter, moreover, carried high proportions (33-60%) of linolenic acid in all lipid classes whereas the other legume lipids were all rich in linoleic acid (30-60%). Cv. within a sp. exhibited identical lipid profiles.
