ABSTRACT:
This present invention provides a method for increasing fatty acid synthase activity in a plant by expressing a transgenic multifunctional fatty acid synthase (mfFAS) within the plant, wherein the plant is not of theBrassicaspecies. In one embodiment, the present invention provides isolated nucleic acid molecules encoding mfFAS proteins from various sources for this purpose, and vectors containing same.
