Abstract: A sorghum seed comprising in its genome at least one polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide having an alanine to threonine substitution at position 93 of the sorghum AHAS protein large subunit. The plant has increased resistance to one or more herbicides, for example from the imidazolinone group, as compared to wild-type sorghum plants. The sorghum plant may comprise in its genome, one, two, three or more copies of a polynucleotide encoding a mutated large subunit of sorghum AHAS or a sorghum AHAS polypeptide of the invention. In this context, the sorghum plant may be tolerant to any herbicide capable of inhibiting AHAS enzyme activity. For example, the sorghum plant may be tolerant to herbicides of the imidazolinones type, such as imazethapyr, imazapir, and imazapic or to herbicides of the sulfonylurea group.

Abstract: Isolated nucleotide sequences mutated by insertion encoding a truncated sunflower oleate desaturase protein, truncated protein, methods, procedures and uses. The isolated nucleotide sequences comprise an insertion that includes a stop codon, and wherein the sequences encode a truncated sunflower oleate desaturase protein. The truncated sunflower oleate desaturase protein may be for example the sequence shown in SEQ ID No: 1 or SEQ ID No: 2.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for modifying one or more types of triglycerides in a fat, comprising subjecting a single fat selected from the group consisting of high stearic high oleic sunflower oil, high stearic high oleic soybean oil, high stearic high oleic rapeseed oil, high stearic high oleic cottonseed oil, palm olein and shea olein to an intraesterification process in which the fatty acids of the triglycerides of said oil or fat are randomly redistributed between the triglycerides to obtain an oil or fat with a modified solid fat content (SFC) profile. Further, the present invention relates to the obtained fats and use thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for increasing the SUS content in an oil or in an olein fraction, comprising performing 1,3-selective enzymatic intraesterification on a natural starting oil or olein fraction prepared therefrom wherein the ratio between SUS and SUU is at least 1:1.5 and the SSS content is low, in particular close to 0%. Further, the present invention relates to 1,3-Selective intraesterified oil or olein, obtainable by performing the present method.
