Zusammenfassung:	Compositions and methods include genetically encoding and expressing a novel Î9 -18:0 ACP desaturase in plant cells. In some embodiments, nucleic acid molecules encode the novel Î9 -18:0 ACP desaturase. In other embodiments, amino acid sequences have Î9 -18:0 ACP desaturase activity. Methods can involve expression of Î9 -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. La presente invención se refiere a un método para producir un material de la planta transgénica, el método comprende: introducir una molécula de ácido de nucleótido en un material de la planta que comprende una desaturasa Ln ?9 AN?9 en donde la molécula de ácido nucleico comprende un polinucleótido que es al menos 60% idéntico a SEQ ID NO: 1 y que codifica una desaturasa delta-9 plastidial que tiene al menos 90% de identidad a la SEQ ID NO: 2.
