Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Mature pecan embryos contained more than 80% oil.
- Observation Unsaturated fatty acids comprised 90% of mature pecan embryo oil.
- Observation Oleic acid was abundant in mature pecan embryo oil.
- Method / resource Pecan embryo RNA sequencing generated 84,643 unigenes.
- Observation The study identified 153 lipid-biosynthesis-associated unigenes.
- Observation Pecan embryo crude fat rose from 16.61 to 74.45% by 165 DAF.
- Observation SAD, FAD2, FAD6, FAD7 and FAD8 unigenes were identified for unsaturated-fatty-acid biosynthesis.
- Observation FAD3 homologues were not detected.
- Mechanism The authors inferred FAD7 and FAD8 in plastids generate embryo linolenic acid.
- Observation Different unigenes were expressed in plastidial and cytosolic glycolysis during embryo development.
- Association Plastidial glycolysis was more relevant to lipid synthesis than cytosolic glycolysis.
- Method / resource qPCR results agreed with transcriptomic expression analysis.
