Abstract
The present invention relates to an artificially manipulated unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis-associated factor and use thereof to increase the content of a specific unsaturated fatty acid of a plant body. More particularly, the present invention relates to a system capable of artificially controlling unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis and a plant body produced thereby, which include an artificially manipulated unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis-associated factor to control unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis and a composition capable of artificially manipulating the factor. In a specific aspect, the present invention relates to artificially manipulated unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis-associated factors such as FAD2, FAD3, FADE, FAD7 and FAD8 and/or an unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis controlling system by an expression product thereof.
