eicosenoic acid/glycine max

Soybean is an important oilseed crop and primary dietary protein resource. The limited understanding of soybean oil biosynthesis has become a significant obstacle for the improvement of soybean oil production. A transcription factor ABSCISIC ACID INSENSITIVE 3 (ABI3) is known for its role in plant

The seed oil of meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba) and other Limnanthes spp. is enriched in the unusual fatty acid Delta(5)-eicosenoic acid (20:1Delta(5)). This fatty acid has physical and chemical properties that make the seed oil of these plants useful for a number of industrial applications. An
