Improving oil yield of Indian mustard ( Brassica juncea ) is exigent as it is a major oilseed crop of Indian subcontinent, which has severe shortage of vegetable oil production in the world. Some of the regulators of seed development have been shown to improve oil yield in  Arabidopsis .  Arabidopsis KLUH  ( AtKLUH ), a maternal regulator of seed size, has been shown to control seed oil content. In this study, we identified three homologs of  AtKLUH  in  B .  juncea ,  BjKLUH1 ,  BjKLUH2-1  and  BjKLUH2-2 . We observed that  BjKLUH1  differentially expresses in developing seeds in  B .  juncea  accessions with varying seed size and oil content. Further, analyses for seed oil content in  B .  juncea  transgenics carrying  AtKLUH  demonstrated an increase in seed oil up to 8.3% compared to wild-type plants. The results of this study suggest that  KLUH  may have a role in seed development and is a good candidate for engineering seed oil accumulation in  B .  juncea .
