摘要
本文介绍了植物种子中脂肪酸代谢的基本途径,并从工业用和食用两方面对近年来植物脂肪酸代谢的遗传调控与基因工程研究的进展进行了较为详细的总结。植物种子中的脂肪酸成分可通过人为遗传调控发生改变。阐明利用基因工程技术调控植物种子脂肪酸代谢途径是一个新兴的、具有巨大潜力的研究领域,并将在人们生活的各方面发挥巨大作用。
In this review, the basic pathway of fatty acid metabolism in plant seeds was introduced, and the recent developments in genetic manipulation and gene engineering of plant fatty acid metabolism were also summarized in detail. The composition of fatty acid in plant seeds can be changed artificially through genetic manipulation. Meanwhile, this review clarified that making use of gene engineering to manipulate fatty acid metabolism in plant seeds has already created a new research area in resent years, which possesses great potentialities, and would play immense effects in people's life.
