Membrane lipids in 77825-83 contained significantly higher levels of saturates than the host canola variety, A112. Phospholipids, which comprise the majority of membrane lipid in mature seed, contained 23 mol% saturates, with 15 mol% stearate. Glycolipids in mature seed, plastid lipids probably remaining from when the embryo was green, contained 33 mol% saturates with 18 mol% stearate. These lipids may be synthesized via the prokaryotic pathway which incorporates 16 0 at sn-2, and potentially could have stearate at sn-2 as well as sn-1. 

LA, which is commonly found in vegetable seed oils, is the most predominant PUFA in our diet. ALA is less abundant than LA however, ALA is present in some vegetable oils such as perilla, flaxseed, canola, soybean and walnut oils (Table 1) and in green vegetables (Table 2). Fish and fish oils are the main sources of long-chain n-3 PUFA (e.g. DHA, EPA, and DPA) in the human diet (Tables 3 and 4). Other dietary sources of long-chain n-3 PUFA include lean...
