oilseed-crops
Oilseed crops are plants cultivated primarily for the oil extracted from their seeds, which serves as a raw material for food, biofuels, and industrial applications. In plant science, these crops are a major focus of research into seed development, fatty acid biosynthesis, and metabolic engineering, as understanding and optimizing oil content and composition has significant agricultural and economic implications. Advances in genomics and molecular breeding have accelerated efforts to improve yield, stress tolerance, and nutritional quality in oilseed species.
