Patent ID: 7566813

Claim:
A soybean seed exhibiting a seed oil fatty acid composition comprising an oleic acid content of about 42% to 85% by weight of the total fatty acids and a saturated fatty acid content of less than 8% by weight of the total fatty acids, wherein said seed further comprises a genome comprising i) a nucleic acid sequence at least 95% identical to a soybean FAD2-1A intron that is between about 20 and about 420 nucleotides in length and that is capable, when expressed in a host cell, of suppressing the expression of endogenous soybean FAD2-1; and ii) a combination of two nucleic acid sequences that are each at least 95% identical to a fragment of soybean FATB-1 sequence that is at least 25 contiguous nucleotides and selected from the group consisting of a) soybean FATB-1 3′UTR; b) soybean FATB-1 5′UTR; and c) soybean FATB transit peptide encoding sequence, wherein said combination of two sequences is capable, when expressed in a host cell, of suppressing the expression of endogenous soybean FATB-1 and said combination of two sequences is between about 40 to about 450 nucleotides in length.
