The apparent bottleneck in the accumulation of oil during seed development in some oleaginous plant species is the formation of triacylglycerol (TAG) by the acyl-CoA-dependent acylation of sn-1,2- diacylglycerol catalyzed by diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT, EC 2.3.1.20). Improving DGAT...

Producing hydroxy fatty acids (HFAs) in transgenic crops represents a promising strategy to meet our demands for specialized plant oils with industrial applications. The expression of Ricinus communis (castor) OLEATE 12-HYDROXYLASE (RcFAH12) in Arabidopsis has resulted in only...

Xu, Yang, Caldo, Kristian Mark P., Pal‐Nath, Dipasmita, Ozga, Jocelyn, Lemieux, M. Joanne, Weselake, Randall J., Chen, Guanqun
Triacylglycerol (TAG) is the major storage lipid in most terrestrial plants and microalgae, and has great nutritional and industrial value. Since the demand for vegetable oil is consistently increasing, numerous studies have been focused on improving the TAG content and modifying the fatty‐acid...

Clarke, Wayne E., Taheri, Ali, Rolfe, Stephen A., Malinowski, Robert, Haddadi, Parham, Links, Matthew G., Kagale, Sateesh, Strelkov, Stephen E., Djavaheri, Mohammad, Robinson, Stephen J., Parkin, Isobel A. P., Borhan, M. Hossein
Background The protist Plasmodiophora brassicae is a soil-borne pathogen of cruciferous species and the causal agent of clubroot disease of Brassicas including agriculturally important crops such as canola/rapeseed (Brassica napus). P. brassicae has remained an enigmatic plant pathogen and is a...
