摘要：
The present invention is in the field of plant genetics and providesrecombinant nucleic acid molecules, constructs, and other agents associatedwith the coordinate manipulation of multiple genes in the fatty acid synthesispathway. In particular, the agents of the present invention are associatedwith the simultaneous enhanced expression of certain genes in the fatty acidsynthesis pathway and suppressed expression of certain other genes in the samepathway. Also provided are plants incorporating such agents, and in particularplants incorporating such constructs where the plants exhibit altered seed oilcompositions, e.g. soybean plants bearing see, wherein the seed exhibit an oilcomposition which comprises 42-85% oleic acid and 1.5-8% saturated fattyacids. The genes to be suppressed are selected from the group consisting ofFAD2, FAD3, and FATB, and the genes whose expression is to be enhanced areselected from the group consisting of beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase IV, and delta-9 desaturase.
