Making fish oils in plants: from alpha to omega
Schematic representation of the biosynthetic pathway for the synthesis of omega‐3 long‐chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. The sequential transgene‐encoded activities required to convert endogenous fatty acids to the longer chain polyunsaturated forms of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid are shown in red.

ABSTRACT Plant growth–promoting bacteria can enhance plant performance under nutrient limitation, yet the underlying plant molecular responses remain incompletely resolved. We investigated growth promotion by Pseudomonas koreensis in Brachypodium distachyon under contrasting nitrogen (N) regimes using time‐resolved phenotyping, elemental analysis ...

The sphingolipids (SLs) of rodent spermatogenic cells (spermatocytes, spermatids) and spermatozoa contain nonhydroxylated and 2-hydroxylated versions of very-long-chain (C26–C32) PUFAs (n-V and h-V, respectively) not present in Sertoli cells (SCs). Here,

ABSTRACT Oleic acid (C18:1), a monounsaturated fatty acid, is a key determinant of nutritional value and oxidative stability of vegetable oils. Increasing its concentration has therefore become a central objective in oilseed crop improvement. This review summarizes current knowledge on the molecular mechanisms and breeding strategies underlying oleic ...

ABSTRACT The intramuscular fat (IMF) content is an important indicator of meat quality, affecting the sensory properties of meat. IMF is a complex trait with polygenic nature. This research aimed to identify differentially expressed (DE) genes and key transcription factors (TFs) associated with IMF deposition in the liver of two rabbit lines ...

Abstract Barnyardgrass [Echinochloa crus‐galli (L.) P. Beauv.] is the most problematic weed of delayed‐flooded rice (Oryza sativa L.) systems in the mid‐southern United States. Recent findings suggest that acetochlor can achieve effective barnyardgrass control in rice, but rice injury can occur with rainfall soon after application.

Prediction of cognitive outcome and progression to dementia using ω6‐PUFA/ω3‐PUFA ratio
Abstract INTRODUCTION The polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) omega‐6 (ω6) and omega‐3 (ω3) are linked to cognitive performance and Alzheimer's‐type dementia (DAT), but ω3‐PUFA supplementation offers limited benefits. We propose that the ω6‐PUFA/ω3‐PUFA ratio better explains cognitive decline and DAT risk.

Combinatorial Effects of Fatty Acid Elongase Enzymes on Nervonic Acid Production in Camelina sativa
Very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) with chain lengths of 20 carbons and longer provide feedstocks for various applications; therefore, improvement of VLCFA contents in seeds has become an important goal for oilseed enhancement. VLCFA biosynthesis is controlled by a multi-enzyme protein complex referred to as fatty acid elongase, which is composed of ...
