A major breakthrough in the breeding of Brassica.napus with high linolenic acid content, which linolenic acid content of germplasm resources exceeding 21%, and of hybrids about 15%

Linolenic acid is the basic substance that makes up cell membranes and bioenzymes, and is also a precursor to the omega-3 series of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which can produce eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) (EPA and DHA are the main components of fish oil)in the human body,only sufficient αlinolenic acid in food, Omega-3 fatty acids can function effectively. Linolenic acid is a nutrition board of human beings today, so the World Health Organization (WHO), the Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China and the Chinese Academy of Nutrition unanimously considered that linolenic acid must be supplemented.
