In addition to the primary use of canola in oil pressing, canola is important as a feed supplement for livestock. We have developed a new approach (termed PiggyBackTM expression) that can be used to enhance the histidine content of canola protein. Using PiggyBackTM expression (a novel recombinant approach for generically improving the amino acid composition in crop plants) the histidine content...
