Provided herein are blends oils or fatty acids comprising more than 50% mediumchain fattyacids, or the fatty acid alkyl esters thereof, and having low melting points.Such blends are usefulas a fuel or as a starting material for the production of, for example, abiodiesel. Also providedgenetically altered or modified plants, modified such that the amount ofmedium chain fattyacids generated by the plant are increased. Further provided is a method ofpredicting the meltingpoint of a blend of fatty acid methyl esters and the use of such a method foridentifying blendssuitable for use as, for example, a biodiesel.
