Our goal is to increase the metabolisable energy of forage species (such as Lolium perenne, perennial ryegrass) via accumulation of lipids in the leaves, and further improve upon this by the delivery of polyunsaturated fatty acids whilst maintaining a low input agricultural system. To date we have generated transgenic ryegrass plants by over expressing the Arabidopsis thaliana triacylglyceride synthesising gene (DGAT1) which accumulate up to 40% more lipid in the leaf. We have also demonstrated that our invention, polyoleosin (designed to protect lipids from biohydrogenation), is correctly assembled and targeted to the oil bodies in the model plant A. thaliana. This paper reports on the preliminary findings of these studies.

Delivery of grasses with high levels of unsaturated, protected fatty acids
