Abstract
Transgenic soybean seed having increased total fatty acid content of at least 20% and altered fatty acid profiles when compared to the total fatty acid content of non-transgenic, null segregant soybean seed are described. DGAT genes from Yarrowia lipolytica combined with plastidic phosphoglucomutase down regulation are used to achieve the increase in seed storage lipids.
