“…Another reason behind the increased oil contents might be the improving the function of enzymes which are involved in the oil production by the application of PGPR. It has been reported that hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA ( Hmgr-CoA ) and phytoene desaturase ( crtl ) genes isolated from bacteria ( E. uredovora ) were manipulated in sunflower resulted in enhanced oil contents and quality of the plant ( Dağüstü et al, 2008 ).…”

Biodiesel is considered as a potential alternative energy source, but problem exists with the quantity and quality of feedstock used for it. To improve the feedstock quality of biodiesel, a field experiment was conducted under natural conditions. Cultivar Thori of kasumbha was used in the experiment. Commercialized biofertilizers were applied at the rate of 20 kg per acre and chemical fertilizer (diammonium phosphate) was applied as half dose (15 kg/ha). Results indicated that number of leaf plant −1 , leaf area, number of seeds capitulum −1 was significantly increased by biofertilizer treatment alone (BF) and combine treatment of biofertilizer and chemical fertilizer (BFCF). Agronomic traits such as plant height, no. of branches of a plant, no. of capitulum/plant was improved significantly by BF treatment over the control. Maximum 1000 seed weight (41%) and seed yield (23%) were recorded in half dose of chemical fertilizers treatment (CFH). Seed oil content and seed phenolics were significantly improved by BF and CF treatments while maximum biodiesel yield was recorded by BF treatment. Maximum oleic acid was recorded by BF treatment while other fatty acids being maximum in control except linoleic acid in BFCF treatment. Results for specific gravity were non-significant while acid value and free fatty acid contents were substantially reduced by BF treatment as compared to other treatments. Maximum value of iodine number was recorded in BFCF treatment while tocopherol contents were improved by BF treatment. It is inferred that biofertilizer treatment alone perform better as compared to other treatments and 50% chemical fertilizer can be replaced using biofertilizer which is a good approach for sustainable environmental-friendly agriculture.

“…Dağüstü et al [54] introduced the Erwinia uredovora phytoene desaturase (crtl) and hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA (Hmgr-CoA) genes into sunflower, which have potential to increase oil quality. On the other hand, [53] developed transgenic sunflower plants resistant to Verticillium dahlia and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum introducing antifungal genes, including gln2 (a glucanase) from Nicotiana tabacum, a chitinase (ch5B) from Phaseolus vulgaris, an osmotin gene (ap24) from N. tabacum, and a gene coding for a ribosome inhibitor protein (rip).…”

In 2009, big challenges facing the agricultural sector in the twenty-first century were presented to the world. Human population growth, increased life expectancy, loss of biodiversity, climate change and accelerated land degradation are the main factors contributing to rethink agriculture system production. In that scenery, modern biotechnology has set a stage for the advancement of agricultural practices and it is clearly an important ally to apply a broad array of technologies and innovative systems where they are most needed, such as enhancing crop productivity, increasing yields, and ultimately ensuring food security. One of the biggest challenges is related to technify production systems, but with no doubt, developing genetic improvement toward getting an efficient and sustainable agriculture, generating new seed qualities (new traits), such as, among others, to upset fatty acids content in oilseed crops have been growing up significantly due to industry interest. In this study, a review about the main advances in genetic improvement of some oilseed crops, starting with omics to understand metabolic routes and to find out key genes in seed oil production, and also, getting in use of modern biotechnology to alter the production of fatty acids, and to face biotic challenges in oilseed crops is presented.
