Abstract

The synthesis of lipids in plants is essential for their growth and development, and it has wide-ranging applications in various fields, including diet and industry. In the majority of plants, the principal unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) are three C18 varieties: oleic acid (18:1), linoleic acid (18:2), and α-linolenic acid (18:3). Despite the clear delineation of the principal biosynthetic pathways of fatty acids in plants, numerous unresolved issues persist. The regulation of transcription factors can significantly influence the rate of fatty acid synthesis in plants. Consequently, several transcription factors associated with oil synthesis have been identified in recent years, among which the WRINKLED1 (WRI1) and V-myb avian myeloblastosis viral oncogene homolog (MYB) transcription factors play central roles. This study will explain how plants make essential lipids, bring up many unanswered questions, and describe the regulatory network of many transcription factors involved in oil production, with a focus on recent progress in research related to WRI1 and MYB1. The aim is to provide insights for the biological cultivation of high-quality oilseed crops.

期刊介绍： Plant Science will publish in the minimum of time, research manuscripts as well as commissioned reviews and commentaries recommended by its referees in all areas of experimental plant biology with emphasis in the broad areas of genomics, proteomics, biochemistry (including enzymology), physiology, cell biology, development, genetics, functional plant breeding, systems biology and the interaction of plants with the environment. Manuscripts for full consideration should be written concisely and essentially as a final report. The main criterion for publication is that the manuscript must contain original and significant insights that lead to a better understanding of fundamental plant biology. Papers centering on plant cell culture should be of interest to a wide audience and methods employed result in a substantial improvement over existing established techniques and approaches. Methods papers are welcome only when the technique(s) described is novel or provides a major advancement of established protocols.
