Phenotypic and oil profile of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana lines expressing various VSPs. (a) Schematic of T‐DNA binary plasmids designed for stable expression of the VSPs (P0PE p19 and V2) in A. thaliana. Genes driven by the Brassica napus truncated napin FP1 promoter and the CaMV 35S promoter as indicated. For comparison purposes, a control construct encoding GFP driven by the FP1 promoter was also designed. (b) The phenotypic changes in cotyledons of A. thaliana stably transformed with constructs outlined in (a). Representative mature plants expressing the respective constructs outlined in (a). Images presented are of stably transformed A. thaliana in the third generation.(c–d) Total oil and relative percentages of the major fatty acids extracted as fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) from seeds of Col‐0 and T3 transgenic A. thaliana. Data presented are from 3 independent events for each plasmid described in Figure 1a. Error bars are the standard error of the mean.
