  • High oleic seed oil trait in cotton varieties to elevate oleic acid content of cottonseed oil
    Patent number: 10238056
    Abstract: An identified 90 bp sequence insertion in the GB0331 genome disrupts the coding sequence of the FAD2-1D gene near the 3? end of the protein coding region. This sequence is not found in reference genomes of other Gossypium species. This DNA segment can be used to track the high oleic fad-2-1D mutant allele for introgression into cotton varieties such as Pima and upland cotton varieties. This enables a non-GMO strategy to elevate the oleic acid content of commercial cottonseed oil.
    Type: Grant
