comments:
  - Overexpression of DGAT1A enhances triacylglycerol biosynthesis in seeds (and in other tissues to a lesser extent).
  - It is involved in stress response and downregulated by stressors like cold, insect bites, and jasmonate.
  - DGAT1A produces similar results when transformed into other species.
phenotype_synopsis: DGAT1A controls synthesis of many triacylglycerols, using 18:3 acyl CoA as an acyl donor. Oil mostly accumulates in seeds.

  - Overexpression of DGAT2D enhances triacylglycerol biosynthesis in flower tissues.
  - DGAT2D is upregulated by temperature stress but downregulated by insect bites and jasmonate.
  - DGAT2D produces similar results when transformed into other species.
phenotype_synopsis: DGAT2D controls synthesis of many triacylglycerols, using 18:1 and 18:2 acyl CoA as acyl donors. Oil accumulates most in flowers.
