Accumulation of omega-7 fatty acids in plant seeds

Compositions and methods include genetically encoding and expressing a novel Δ9-18:0-ACP desaturase in plant cells. In some embodiments, nucleic acid molecules encode the novel Δ9-18:0-ACP desaturase. In other embodiments, amino acid sequences have Δ9-18:0-ACP desaturase activity. Methods can involv...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	Compositions and methods include genetically encoding and expressing a novel Δ9-18:0-ACP desaturase in plant cells. In some embodiments, nucleic acid molecules encode the novel Δ9-18:0-ACP desaturase. In other embodiments, amino acid sequences have Δ9-18:0-ACP desaturase activity. Methods can involve expression of Δ9-18:0-ACP desaturase in plant cells, plant materials, and whole plants for the purpose of increasing the amount of unusual fatty acids in whole plants, plant seeds, and plant materials, for example, seeds.
