Vegetable oils, which are stored in seeds as triacylglycerol (TAG), represent a valuable source of food, fuel, and industrial raw materials. Given the increasing demand for vegetable oils, it is essential to increase vegetable oil production in a sustainable manner. To boost the supply of vegetable oil, strategies to produce oils in the vegetative tissues of biomass crops are being investigated. Producing...
The LEAFY COTYLEDON2 (LEC2) gene plays critically important regulatory roles during both early and late embryonic development. Here, we report the identification of the LEC2 gene from the castor bean plant (Ricinus communis), and characterize the effects of its overexpression on gene regulation and lipid metabolism in transgenic Arabidopsis plants. LEC2 exists as a single-copy gene in castor bean,...
