The biosynthetic pathway for LC‐PUFAs and efficacy in transgenic canola. (a) Schematic representation of the enzymatic biosynthesis of LC‐PUFAs. The two different ‘tracks’ (omega‐6, omega‐3) are shown, as are the individual enzyme activities required for each step; this modification is shown in red. (b) Total seed fatty acid composition for canola event LBFLFK, compared with the parent line Kumily. Data are aggregated results from multi‐location field trials [Sottosanta et al. (2018) Table 32,33]. (c) Total seed fatty acid composition for canola event NS‐B50027‐4, compared with the parent line AV‐Jade. Data are aggregated results from multi‐location field trials [Devine et al., 2017; table 15].
