Journal ArticleDOI
Improvement of rice (Oryza sativa L.) seed oil quality through introduction of a soybean microsomal omega-3 fatty acid desaturase gene
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the α-linolenic acid content of rice seed oil can easily be altered using the combination of a high-activity promoter and a GmFAD3 gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
High Oleic Acid Mutant in Soybean Induced by X-Ray Irradiation
Shaikh Mizanur Rahman,Yutaka Takagi,Kouichi Kubota,Kei Miyamoto,Tetsuya Kawakita,Tetsuya Kawakita +5 more
TL;DR: Mutant M23 isolated from the M2 generations was confirmed to be always associated with a high oleic acid content under different environmental conditions in the M3 generations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of corresponding genes for three low-α-linolenic acid mutants and elucidation of their contribution to fatty acid biosynthesis in soybean seed
TL;DR: Four cDNAs were obtained and characterized, encoding microsomal ω-3 fatty acid desaturase gene for α-linolenic acid biosynthesis in soybean seeds and revealed that the COOH-terminal region of both mutant gene products is essential for their enzymatic activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inheritance of high oleic acid content in the seed oil of soybean mutant M23.
Yutaka Takagi,Shaikh M. Rahman +1 more
TL;DR: Results indicated that oleic acid content was controlled by two alleles at a single locus with a partial dominant effect, and the mutant allele was designated ol and the genotypes of M23 and Bay were determined to be olol and 0l0l, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel GmFAD2-1b mutant alleles created by reverse genetics induce marked elevation of oleic acid content in soybean seeds in combination with GmFAD2-1a mutant alleles
TL;DR: Novel mutant alleles of GmFAD2-1b are isolated from ethyl methanesulfonate-treated soybean mutant populations through Targeting Induced Local Lesions In Genomes (TILLING), a reverse genetic method that could provide a practical method for expanding the genetic diversity of polyploid crops.
