Abstract
The analyses described here were done to determine chemical composition of seed unsaturated fatty acids in a wide range of species and persistence in the soil. Results showed no relationship between seed lipids and persistence in the soil. Therefore, there was no evidence to support the hypothesis that the oily seeds may be short lived and the relationship between oil content and seed longevity hypothesis is complex. Keywords: seed chemistry, seed persistence
