Identification of bottlenecks in the accumulation of cyclic fatty acids in camelina seed oil

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 16, Issue 4, Page 926-938, April 2018., 2018
Summary Modified fatty acids (mFA) have diverse uses; for example, cyclopropane fatty acids (CPA) are feedstocks for producing coatings, lubricants, plastics and cosmetics. The expression of mFA‐producing enzymes in crop and model plants generally results in lower levels of mFA accumulation than in their natural‐occurring source plants.

Diet composition, quality and overlap of sympatric American pronghorn and gemsbok

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2017, Issue 1, Page 1-10, January 2017., 2017
Species with a long evolutionary history of sympatry often have mechanisms for resource partitioning that reduce competition. However, introduced non‐native ungulates often compete with native ungulates and competitive effects can be exacerbated in arid regions due to low primary productivity.

Identification of multiple lipid genes with modifications in expression and sequence associated with the evolution of hydroxy fatty acid accumulation in Physaria fendleri

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 86, Issue 4, Page 322-348, May 2016., 2016
Summary Two Brassicaceae species, Physaria fendleri and Camelina sativa, are genetically very closely related to each other and to Arabidopsis thaliana. Physaria fendleri seeds contain over 50% hydroxy fatty acids (HFAs), while Camelina sativa and Arabidopsis do not accumulate HFAs.

A Review on the Challenges for Increased Production of Castor

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 853-880, July 2012., 2012
Castor (Ricinus communis L.) is one of the oldest cultivated crops, but currently it represents only 0.15% of the vegetable oil produced in the world. Castor oil is of continuing importance to the global specialty chemical industry because it is the only commercial source of a hydroxylated fatty acid.

Bio‐Based Polyurethanes: Mechanical Performance, Structure–Property Relationships, and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 9, Page 1860-1894, 1 May 2026.
This review examines bio‐based polyurethanes from renewable feedstocks, focusing on structure‐property relationships governing mechanical performance. It analyzes reinforcement strategies, benchmarks against petrochemical counterparts, and explores future directions, including non‐isocyanate routes and circular economy integration for sustainable high ...

Comparative Analysis of Fatty Acid Desaturases in Cyanobacterial Genomes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Genomics, Volume 2008, Issue 1, 2008., 2008
Fatty acid desaturases are enzymes that introduce double bonds into the hydrocarbon chains of fatty acids. The fatty acid desaturases from 37 cyanobacterial genomes were identified and classified based upon their conserved histidine‐rich motifs and phylogenetic analysis, which help to determine the amounts and distributions of desaturases in ...
