Abstract: Triacylglycerol (TAG), which is a neutral lipid, has a structure in which three molecules of fatty acid (FA) are ester-bonded to one molecule of glycerol. TAG is important energy source for seed germination and seedling development in plants. Depending on the FA composition of the TAG, it is used as an edible oil or industrial material for cosmetics, soap, and lubricant. As the demand for plant oil is rising worldwide, either the type of FA must be changed or the total oil content of various plants must be inc… Show more

“…CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing holds great promise for rapid improvement of the seed oil quality of oil crops, as disruption of even a single gene can have a significant impact on the fatty acid profile of seed oil and provides new opportunities to enhance oil production in vegetative tissues. Applications of the CRISPR technique in modifying fatty acid profiles and increase the oil production in vegetative tissues have been reviewed by Park and Kim (2022) . For instance, knocking out of FAD2 could increase the oleic acid contents in some species, while knocking out of some paralogs of the FATB gene reduced the levels of saturated fatty acids in soybean and peanuts.…”

“…Finally, the comprehensive understanding of multi-”omics” technologies and advanced genome-editing capabilities offer the possibility of rapid assembly and introduction of multiple candidate genes for further improvements in seed oil quality. Popular genome-editing tools, such as CRISPR/Cas9, could be used to remove or minimize metabolic competition while directing metabolic flux toward TG biosynthesis, or to edit specific amino acids in oil biosynthesis enzymes to improve/modify enzymatic activities ( Park and Kim, 2022 ).…”
