Question
Can you suggest a method to remove oil (hydrocarbon) from seeds based on your understanding of rDNA technology and chemistry of oil?
✓
Answer
→ Recombinant DNA technology is used to obtain products by modification of gene.
→ By using r- DNA technology, oil can be removed from seed.
→ Oil contains glycerol and fatty acids.
→ Using r- DNA, glycerol and fatty acid synthesis is inhibited to reduce oil in seed.
