| Genome-wide identification and analysis of soybean acyl-ACP thioesterase gene family reveals the role of GmFAT to improve fatty acid composition in soybean seed |
|
Soybean oil stability and quality are primarily determined by the relative proportions of saturated versus unsaturated fatty acids. Commodity soybean typically contains 11% palmitic acid, as the primary saturated fatty acids. Reducing palmitic acid content is the principal approach to minimize the levels of saturated fatty acids in soybean. Though high palmitic acid enhances oxidative stability of soybean oil, |

AbstractSoybean oil stability and quality are primarily determined by the relative proportions of saturated versus unsaturated fatty acids. Commodity soybean typically contains 11% palmitic acid, as the primary saturated fatty acids. Reducing palmitic acid content is the principal approach to minimize the levels of saturated fatty acids in soybean. Though high palmitic acid enhances oxidative stability of soybean oil, it is negatively correlated with oil and oleic acid content and can cause coronary heart diseases for humans. For plants, acyl–acyl carrier protein (ACP) thioesterases (TEs) are a group of enzymes to hydrolyze acyl group and release free fatty acid from plastid. Among them, GmFATB1A has become the main target to genetically reduce the palmitic acid content in soybean. However, the role of members in soybean acyl-ACP thioesterase gene family is largely unknown. In this study, we characterized two classes of TEs, GmFATA, and GmFATB in soybean. We also denominated two GmFATA members and discovered six additional members that belong to GmFATB gene family through phylogenetic, syntenic, and in silico analysis. Using TILLING-by-Sequencing+, we identified an allelic series of mutations in five soybean acyl-ACP thioesterase genes, including GmFATA1A, GmFATB1A, GmFATB1B, GmFATB2A, and GmFATB2B. Additionally, we discovered mutations at GmFATA1A to confer high oleic acid (up to 34.5%) content, while mutations at GmFATB presented low palmitic acid (as low as 5.6%) and high oleic acid (up to 36.5%) phenotypes. The obtained soybean mutants with altered fatty acid content can be used in soybean breeding program for improving soybean oil composition traits.
