Polar lipid contents (LPC, MGDG, DGDG, PC, PE, PG, PI) plotted against total kernel extractable mass in weight % for five pit kernel trials from site 4. Kernel types are represented by color: Samples of fresh kernels (black), 3-month pit (red) and 6-month (blue) pit kernels, and two samples of boiled kernels from each of site 1 and 3 (green). Each of the five pits are indicated by a specific symbol. Polar lipid content is the normalized sum of the peak heights for the 32 compounds depicted in Fig. 3g.
