Mapping the low palmitate fap1 mutation and validation of its effects in soybean oil and agronomic traits in three soybean populations

Abstract: Key message fap1 mutation is caused by a G174A change in GmKASIIIA that disrupts a donor splice site recognition and creates a GATCTG motif that enhanced its expression. Abstract Soybean oil with reduced palmitic acid content is desirable to reduce the health risks associated with consumption of this fatty acid. The objectives of this study were: to identify the genomic location of the reduced palmitate fap1 mutation, determine its molecular basis, estimate the amount of phenotypic variation in fatty acid comp… Show more

“…Because this predominant saturated fatty acid in cultivated soybeans is associated with cardiovascular problems [38], efforts have been made to reduce its level [5, 39, 40]. Considerable success has been achieved with the discovery of alleles at two independent loci , fap1 on chromosome nine and fap3 on chromosome five, either of which can reduce palmitic acid levels to as low as 6% or even lower [41, 42]. Unfortunately, these alleles also tend to decrease overall yield [42] and thus compromise their usefulness in soybean breeding regimes.…”

“…Considerable success has been achieved with the discovery of alleles at two independent loci , fap1 on chromosome nine and fap3 on chromosome five, either of which can reduce palmitic acid levels to as low as 6% or even lower [41, 42]. Unfortunately, these alleles also tend to decrease overall yield [42] and thus compromise their usefulness in soybean breeding regimes. This suggests that a useful alternate might be to screen wild soybeans for accessions with reduced palmitic acid levels to identify novel genes for eventual transfer to domesticated varieties.…”

“…While null alleles of the KAS III gene in Arabidopsis may be lethal, the soybean genome contains KAS III orthologues on chromosome 09 and 18 that may allow more nuanced phenotypic changes to be revealed by mutation in one or the other gene. The fap1 mutation from C1726 was mapped to Glyma.09g277400, a KAS III variant with a splice‐site mutation (Cardinal et al, ). Selection for this allele in soybean results in lower palmitic acid but no other obvious plant phenotypes, perhaps because of a functionally redundant homologue on chromosome 18.…”

“…Reductions in palmitic acid in soybean seed oil have also been achieved (Cardinal et al, ; De Vries, Fehr, Welke, & Dewey, ; Wilcox & Cavins, ). Several independent mutations in a soybean acyl‐ACP thioesterase B enzyme encoded by the FATB‐1A gene on chromosome 5 (Glyma.05g012300) have been identified and characterized (Cardinal et al, ; De Vries et al, ; Gillman et al, ; Thapa, Carrero‐Colón, & Hudson, ).…”
