ABSTRACT:
A method for the alteration of synthesis of fatty acids and the corresponding compositions of triacylglycerols in plants is provided. Plant tissue transformed with a fatty acid CoA desaturase gene obtained from an animal or yeast source shows a decrease in saturated 16 and 18 carbon fatty acids with a corresponding increase in monounsaturated 16 and 18 carbon fatty acids in transformed calli, leaves and seeds.
