Zusammenfassung:PCT No. PCT/US92/10284 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 26, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 26, 1994 PCT Filed Dec. 3, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/11245 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 10, 1993The preparation and use of nucleic acid fragments encoding fatty acid desaturase enzymes are described. The invention permits alteration of plant lipid composition. Chimeric genes incorporating such nucleic acid fragments with suitable regulatory sequences may be used to create transgenic plants with altered levels of unsaturated fatty acids.
