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.

Long‐term stability of RNAi‐mediated gene silencing in high‐oleic soybean lines
Abstract In Brazil, renewable biofuel is mainly produced from soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] oil. Typically, soybean‐derived oil contains approximately 25% of the monounsaturated oleic acid, 13% of the saturated fatty acid palmitic, and 55% of the polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) linoleic acid.

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.

Breeding for improved oil quality in high yielding soybean lines using molecular markers for selecting FAD2-1A, FAD2-1B, FAD3A and FAD3C mutant alleles to produce a high oleic, low linolenic (HOLL) soybean. [PDF]
Soybean oil is a major commodity in the US with practical uses for both food and industrial products. A declining market for soybean oil production caused by added restrictions on oil hydrogenation practices, has fueled improvements in oil industry ...

Analysis of genetic diversity and expression of genes involved in fatty acid composition in flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) and comparative genomic analysis of their loci [PDF]
Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is one of the richest plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids praised for their health benefits. In this study, the extent of the genetic variability for genes encoding stearoyl-ACP desaturase (SAD), fatty acid desaturase 2 ...
