FA content (A) and composition (B) of yeast lipids.

<p>JMY1877 recombinant strains transformed with the empty cassette or expressing AtDGAT1 or EgDGAT1-1 were grown for 18 h. FAs from twenty-five milligrams of dry cell lysate were transmethylated. The resulting FAMEs from three independent cultures were identified and quantified by GC-FID. (<b>A</b>) FA content values are expressed in percentage of dry cell weight per strain. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences according to a <i>t</i>-test (*<i>P</i><0.05; **<i>P</i><0.01). (<b>B</b>) FA composition values are expressed as relative amount of each FA per strain. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences according to a <i>t</i>-test (*<i>P</i><0.05; **<i>P</i><0.01; ***<i>P</i><0.001).
