A METHOD OF PRODUCING SOYBEAN PLANT WITH A DIFFERENTIATED FATTY ACID COMPOSITION IN THE SEED, SOYBEAN PLANT, AND SOYBEAN OIL

摘要

The present invention belongs to the field of plant genetics and describes a novel and inventive method of producing oleaginous plants, the seeds of which exhibit differentiated fatty acid contents. The invention further relates to molecules, nucleic acid constructs and other elements linked to the coordinated manipulation of multiple genes that act on the pathway of synthesis of fatty acids. Also provided is a method of suppressing genes in the same pathway, besides plants that incorporate such elements and, in particular, plants that exhibit altered fatty acid compositions in their seeds.
