  • Patent number: 7067718
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method of producing diacylglycerol characterized by inactivating the function of a gene which encodes diacylglycerol acyltransferase having the function of enzymatically reacting with diacylglycerol to create triacylglycerol in a seed, so as to allow diacylglycerol to be accumulated in the seed.
