Identification and characterization of single nucleotide polymorphism markers in FADS2 gene associated with olive oil fatty acids composition

Abstract Background Genotyping of the FAD2.1 and FAD2.3 polymorphisms in the fatty acid desaturase 2 gene (FADS2) shows that they are associated with the fatty acids composition of olive oil samples. However, these associations require further confirmation in the Tunisian olive oil cultivars, and li...
