Abstract

Abstract: Plant seeds are a principal source of oils in humans’ daily life. In recent years, researches on plant seeds have illustrated the principle of oil synthesis and mined some key enzymes and genes involved in the regulation of oil synthesis pathway. Based on the previous study, the article added progress in pathways and genes involved in oil synthesis, and transcriptional regulation, as well as summarized the possible influence of carbon supply and transportation, endosperm, etc. on oil synthesis.

Key words: oil synthesis, regulation, plant seecl, carbon suply, endosperm
