Abstract Genetic manipulation (either restraint or enhancement) of the biosynthesis pathway of α-linolenic acid (ALA) in seed oil is an important goal in Brassica napus breeding. B. napus is a tetraploid plant whose genome often harbors four and six homologous copies, respectively, of the two fatty acid desaturases FAD2 and FAD3, which control the last two steps of ALA biosynthesis during seed oil accumulation. In this study, we compared their promoters, coding sequences, and expression levels in three high-ALA inbred lines 2006L, R8Q10, and YH25005, a low-ALA line A28, a low-ALA/high-oleic-acid accession SW, and the wildtype ZS11. The expression… More >
