Novel FAD3 Mutant Allele Combinations Produce Soybeans Containing 1% Linolenic Acid in the Seed Oil
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] oil typically contains about 7% of linolenic acid, an oxidatively unstable fatty acid that is undesirable for many food applications. For cooking oil, reduction of the linolenic acid content by partial hydrogenation produces trans fatty acids, which are now known to increase the risk of coronary heart disease.

Abstract There is an interest in soybean oil enriched with oleic acid and reduced linolenic acid to improve oil functionality. The soybean breeding program at the University of Missouri‐Fisher Delta Research, Extension, and Education Center has developed and released soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] ‘S18PR‐190 HOLL’ (Reg. no. CV‐567, PI 708613).

Abstract Oil accounts for about 50% of the value of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. A changing marketplace demands soybean oil with reduced amounts of linoleic and linolenic acid to increase shelf‐life and with increased amount of oleic acid to compete with heart‐healthy oils. Meal accounts for the other half of the value of the crop.

Three genes encoding fatty acid desaturase 3 (fad3a, fad3b, and a novel fad3c) were cloned from four flax genotypes varying in linolenic acid content. Real-time PCR was used to quantify expression levels of the three fad3 genes during seed development ...

FAD3 gene expression level of T5 homozygous RNAi lines.
Data are averages of biological triplicates ± SD normalized to CONS7 mRNA. Independent-Samples T Test was used to test the significance. Asterisks indicate significant differences in relative expression between transgenic lines and control. (*, p < 0.05;
