TL;DR: A newly identifi ed soybean gene is reported, designated SACPD-C, that encodes a unique isoform of Δ 9 –stearoyl-ACP-desaturase, the enzyme responsible for converting stearic acid to oleic acid (18:1), suggesting that the encoded desaturase functions to enhance oleIC acid biosynthetic capacity as the immature seed is actively engaged in triacylglycerol production and storage.

TL;DR: This scenario indicates that polyethylene glycol (PEG)-induced cellular dehydration and ER stress elicited very different up-regulated responses within a 10-h stress treatment regime, and provides a list of candidate regulatory components, which may integrate the osmotic-stress and ER-stress signaling pathways in plants.
