Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • Increased size of oil bodies in Bnlpat2/Bnlpat5 mutant mature seed of B. napus.
  • The seeds of the Bnlpat2/Bnlpat5 mutant were wizened and showed enlarged oil bodies, disrupted distribution of protein bodies and increased accumulation of starch in mature seeds.
  • We speculated that Bnlpat2 and BnLPAT5 are of great importance for TAG accumulation in the Kennedy pathway.
  • The size of the oil bodies increased significantly while the oil content decreased, confirming that Bnlpat2 and BnLPAT5 play a role in oil biosynthesis. The present study lays a foundation for further oil production improvement in oilseed crop species.
