    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of molecular biology and concerns increasing the tocopherol content of a plant relative to a control plant, comprising expressing in a plant at least one polynucleotide encoding a delta-12-desaturase, at least one polynucleotide encoding a delta-6-desaturase, at least one polynucleotide encoding a delta-6-elongase, and at least one polynucleotide encoding a delta-5-desaturase. The present invention also relates to methods for the manufacture of oil, fatty acid- or lipids-containing compositions, and to such oils and lipids as such.

    Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed relate to increasing the proportion of omega-3 fatty acid in seed oil produced by a plurality of Brassica plants, such as canola, transgenically modified to produce seed oil comprising at least one of EPA, DHA and DPA. Transgenic Brassica plants, such as transgenic canola, are subjected to an environment which has an average daily day-night temperature difference of at least 13° C. during the transgenic plant's period of seed maturation. The seed oil is at least 5 wt % EPA. The seed oil is at least 1 wt % DPA. The seed oil is at least 0.2 wt % DHA. The seed oil is at least 5.2 wt % a mixture of EPA and DHA. The seed oil is at least 6 wt % long chain omega-3 fatty acids.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of analyzing the metabolic content of a biological sample comprising: i) providing one or more samples of extracted metabolites from the biological sample; ii) performing a chromatography coupled mass spectrometry analysis of the extracted metabolites to generate a full raw data set for full scan ions; iii) generating a full data cluster set from the full raw data set obtained in step ii) by grouping full scan ions according to isotope and adduct values; iv) performing a tandem mass spectrometry analysis of the extracted metabolites with a plurality of mass selection windows to generate a raw SWATH® data set for fragment ions; v) generating a SWATH® data cluster set from the raw SWATH® data set obtained in step iv) by grouping fragment ions according to retention time and mass values; vi) aligning the SWATH® data cluster set with the full data cluster set to generate characteristic profile for each extracted metabolite; vii) comparing the data using R characteristic profile of each extracted metabolite obtained in step vi) with a reference library of characteristic profiles of metabolites to provide the metabolic content of the biological sample.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of increasing resistance against fungal pathogens of the order Pucciniales, preferably the family Phacopsoraceae, in plants and/or plant cells. This is achieved by increasing the expression of an RLK2 protein or fragment thereof in a plant, plant part and/or plant cell in comparison to wild type plants, wild type plant parts and/or wild type plant cells. Furthermore, the invention relates to transgenic plants, plant parts, and/or plant cells having an increased resistance against fungal pathogens, in particular, pathogens of the order Pucciniales, preferably the family Phacopsoraceae, and to recombinant expression vectors comprising a sequence that is identical or homologous to a sequence encoding an RLK2 protein.
