Abstract excerpt
Camellia oleifera Abel. is an important woody oil tree species in China, and increasing the content of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), particularly α-linolenic acid (ALA), is critical for improving the quality of its oil. Fatty acid desaturase 7 (FAD7) is a key enzyme in ALA biosynthesis in plants. However, the allelic variation, functional role, and regulatory mechanisms underlying FAD7-mediated ALA...
