Combination of Novel Mutation in FAD3C and FAD3A for Low Linolenic Acid Soybean [PDF]
Core Ideas New low linolenic soybean with novel alleles of FAD3A and FAD3C. Mutation in GmFAD3C reduces linolenic acid levels. Soybean FAD3C controls linolenic acid levels. Conventional commodity soybean oil can typically have levels of linolenic acid up

Overexpression of the Purple Perilla (Perilla frutescens (L.)) FAD3a Gene Enhances Salt Tolerance in Soybean. [PDF]
The increasingly serious trend of soil salinization inhibits the normal growth and development of soybeans, leading to reduced yields and a serious threat to global crop production. Microsomal ω-3 fatty acid desaturase encoded by the FAD3 gene is a plant enzyme that plays a significant role in α-linolenic acid synthesis via regulating the membrane ...

Comparative Lipidomic Analysis Reveals Heat Stress Responses of Two Soybean Genotypes Differing in Temperature Sensitivity [PDF]
Heat-induced changes in lipidome and their influence on stress adaptation are not well-defined in plants. We investigated if lipid metabolic changes contribute to differences in heat stress responses in a heat-tolerant soybean genotype DS25-1 and a heat ...

Genetic diversity of SAD and FAD genes responsible for the fatty acid composition in flax cultivars and lines [PDF]
Background Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is grown for fiber and seed in many countries. Flax cultivars differ in the oil composition and, depending on the ratio of fatty acids, are used in pharmaceutical, food, or paint industries. It is known that genes

Expression of FAD and SAD Genes in Developing Seeds of Flax Varieties under Different Growth Conditions [PDF]
Flax seed is one of the richest plant sources of linolenic acid (LIN) and also contains unsaturated linoleic acid (LIO) and oleic acid (OLE). Stearoyl-ACP desaturases (SADs) and fatty acid desaturases (FADs) play key roles in the synthesis of flax fatty ...

Microsomal omega-3 fatty acid desaturase genes in low linolenic acid soybean line RG10 and validation of major linolenic acid QTL [PDF]
High levels of linolenic acid (80 g kg-1) are associated with the development of off-flavours and poor stability in soybean oil. The development of low linolenic acid lines such as RG10 (20 g kg-1 linolenic acid) can reduce these problems.

Molecular-assisted breeding for soybean with high oleic/low linolenic acid and elevated vitamin E in the seed oil. [PDF]
The uses of vegetable oils are determined by functional properties arising from their chemical composition. Soybean oil was previously used in margarines and baked foods after partial hydrogenation to achieve heat and oxidative stability.
