Patent ID: 8916748

Claim:
A method for the manufacture of a polypeptide capable of increasing the content of total fatty acids in seed when expressed in a transgenic plant relative to a corresponding control plant comprising: (a) expressing in a host cell a polynucleotide, wherein the polynucleotide comprises a nucleic acid sequence selected from the group consisting of: (i) the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 778; (ii) a nucleic acid sequence encoding a polypeptide comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 779; and (iii) a nucleic acid sequence which is at least 90% identical to the nucleic acid sequence of (i) or (ii), wherein said nucleic acid sequence encodes a polypeptide capable of increasing the content of total fatty acids in seed when expressed in a transgenic plant relative to a corresponding control plant; and (b) obtaining the polypeptide encoded by said polynucleotide from the host cell.
