Species

Camelina is a genus within the flowering plant family Brassicaceae . The Camelina species, commonly known as false flax, are native to Mediterranean regions of Europe and Asia . Most species of this genus have been little studied, with the exception of Camelina sativa , historically cultivated as an oil plant . Heinrich Johann Nepomuk von Crantz was the first botanist to use the genus Camelina in his classification works in 1762.

As a way to reduce fossil fuel emissions, the US Navy tested a 50-50 mix of jet aviation fuel and biofuel derived from camelina seeds in 2010. [1] A study published in December 2016 explained that the current low price of conventional kerosene -based jet fuel makes it cost-prohibitive for commercial airlines to use camelina-based jet fuel. The study said substantial government intervention would be one way to create a market for camelina, by combining 9 percent government subsidy on camelina crop production, with 9 percent tax on conventional fuel. [2]

Etymology [ edit ]

The name Camelina comes from the Greek for "ground" and "flax", alluding to its being a weed which suppresses the vigour of flax crops. [3]

Description [ edit ]

Camelina plants are annual or biennial herbs . Their leaves are simple , lanceolate to narrowly elliptic . The flowers are hermaphroditic actinomorphic , grouped in racemes , and yellowish colored. The seeds are formed in dehiscent siliques . [4]

Genetics [ edit ]

The first full genome sequence for Camelina sativa was released on 1 August 2013, by a Canadian research team. The genome sequence and its annotation are available in a genome viewer format and enabled for sequence searching and alignment. [5] Technical details of Camelina 's genome sequence were published on 23 April 2014 in the academic journal Nature Communications. [6]

In 2013, Rothamsted Research in the UK reported they had developed a genetically modified form of Camelina sativa that produced Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) at levels equivalent to fish oil. [7] EPA and DHA are long-chain omega-3 fatty acids which are beneficial for cardiovascular health. The main source of these omega-3 fatty acids is fish but supplies are limited and unsustainable. [8] [9] In October 2023, Yield10 Bioscience acquired an exclusive commercial license for the Rothansted's EPA/DHA Camelina . [10] In January 2024, Yield10 requested a Regulatory Status Review from USDA-APHIS for the modified Camelina . [11]

Species [ edit ]

Four common species are presented below. However, at least two databanks indicate more species may exist. [12]

Biodiesel [ edit ]

Biodiesel made from camelina has a variety of benefits. First, traditional petroleum or diesel fuel is not renewable resources, the production of these resources is finite. Camelina biodiesel, however, is a renewable resource. Camelina based aviation fuel could save 84% of carbon emissions. [14] Camelina biodiesel can be produced in large quantities as feedstocks are enough. Moreover, camelina biodiesel can reduce a country's dependence on fossil resources, which can ensure a country's energy security. In addition, camelina biodiesel is an environmentally friendly fuel, and it is biodegradable. [15] The greenhouse gas emission of camelina biodiesel produced by no-till farming is lower than that of traditional methods. [16]
