Genetic Improvement of the Fatty Acid Biosynthesis System to Alter the ω‐6/ω‐3 Ratio in the Soybean Seed
2017-11-01
Abstract excerpt
A high ω‐6/ω‐3 fatty acid ratio in the soybean seed adversely affects human health. The objective of the present study was to improve the fatty acid biosynthesis to reduce the ω‐6/ω‐3 ratio by combining the FAD2‐1A and FAD2‐1B mutant alleles with α‐linolenic acid (ω‐3) related alleles from wild soybean. The F₂ population comprising 2320 F₂:₃ lines developed from S08‐14717 × PI 483463 cross exhibited significant va...
