Aims. Heterologous expression of desaturases in plants may cause change in fatty acid spectrum and improve their cold resistance. Methods. Transgenic plants were selected and analyzed after Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation. Results. Protocols of D. linguella in vitro cultivation, genetic transformation and plant regeneration were developed. Transgenic plants of D. linguella carrying desС::licBM3 hybrid gene were selected and analyzed. Conclusions. D. linguella plants with high level of transgene expression showed change in fatty acid spectrum toward linolenic acid accumulation.

Key words: desaturase, transgenic plants, Dendrobium linguella.
