Abstract
Fatty acids from oils extracted from three seed coat phenotypes of Mexican stone pines (Pinus cembroides Zuc) growing in the central region of Veracruz State, Mexico, consisted of lauric (0-4.8%), myristic (3.4-9.1%), palmitic (6.4-7.8%), stearic (3.1-5.5%), oleic (36.7-47.2%) and linoleic (32.9-44.5%) acids. The differences between the phenotypes studied were statistically significant in their levels of myristic, oleic and linoleic acids.
