Gene screening for fatty acid synthesis of flax based on transcriptome sequencing

Abstract To understand differential expression of genes (DEGs) based on transcriptome and transcription features of fatty acid desaturase genes (fads) in development of oil flax capsules. Three varieties of flax with high, medium and low linolenic acid (C18:3) content was investigated. The differential expressed genes (DEGs) of seed developing periods (15 d and 30 d after flowering, DAF) were compared with that of the flowering day based on RNA sequencing technology. DEGs related to fatty acid accumulation were distinguished and compared with Gene Ontolygy (GO) database and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway. In the synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids and α-linolenic acid metabolism, DEGs acted in multiple processes and signaling pathways. Lus_GLEAN_10046787, Lus_GLEAN_10024616, Lus_GLEAN_10024710, Lus_GLEAN_10046516, scaffold280_unigene_193 and scaffold272_unigene_19 participated in 23, 11, 12, 12, 12, 13 processes in GO description, respectively. And they acted in fatty acid degradation (ath00071), metabolism (ath01212), biosynthesis (ath00061) and elongation (ath00062) in the KEGG signaling pathway. The scaffold96_unigene_47 was differentially expressed between FR46 and FR48 with different linolenic acid contents. The DEGs can be utilized describe the structure and transcription expression features, which contribute to the selection and utilization of flax breeding lines.
