摘要：
The present invention is in the field of plant genetics and provides recombinantnucleic acid molecules, constructs, and other agents associated with the coordinatemanipulation of multiple genes in the fatty acid synthesis pathway. In particular,the agents of the present invention are associated with the simultaneous enhancedexpression of certain genes in the fatty acid synthesis pathway and suppressedexpression of certain other genes in the same pathway. Also provided are plantsincorporating such agents, and in particular plants incorporating such constructswhere the plants exhibit altered seed oil compositions, e.g. soybean plantsbearing see, wherein the seed exhibit an oil composition which comprises 42-85%oleic acid and 1.5-8% saturated fatty acids. The genes to be suppressed are selectedfrom the group consisting of FAD2, FAD3, and FATB, and the genes whose expressionis to be enhanced are selected from the group consisting of beta-ketoacyl-ACPsynthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase IV, and delta-9 desaturase.
