NOVELTY - Producing a natural oil comprising triacylglycerides, or a product produced from the natural oil, comprises cultivating a cell of a recombinant microorganism; and recovering the natural oil from the cell, and optionally further processing the natural oil to produce a food, fuel, or chemical product, where the natural oil has an altered fatty acid profile due to the recombinant nucleic acids.    USE - The methods are useful for producing natural oil comprising triacylglycerides, or product produced from the natural oil, or producing a natural oil comprising triacylglycerides that comprise ricinoleic acid, or product produced from the natural oil (all claimed). Generally, the methods can be used for producing oil, fuels (such as renewable diesel, biodiesel, and renewable jet fuel), oleochemicals (such as functional fluids, surfactants, soaps and lubricants), and other compounds in recombinant microorganisms.    ADVANTAGE - The methods provide low cost cultivation of microorganisms.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Producing a natural oil comprising triacylglycerides, or a product produced from the natural oil, comprises cultivating a cell of a recombinant microorganism, the cell comprises recombinant nucleic acids operable to: (a) decrease or eliminate the expression of an enzyme encoded by one or more genes that encode a beta-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) synthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, stearoyl ACP desaturase, fatty acid desaturase, or acyl-ACP thioesterase, and optionally where the cell comprises recombinant nucleic acids operable to decrease or eliminate the expression of two copies of a gene encoding a beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, stearoyl ACP desaturase, or fatty acid desaturase, or acyl-ACP thioesterase; or (b) express a product of an exogenous gene encoding an active beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, stearoyl ACP desaturase, or fatty acid desaturase, or acyl-ACP thioesterase; or (c) decrease or eliminate the expression of an enzyme encoded by one or more genes that encode a beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I or beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, and express a product of an exogenous gene encoding an active stearoyl ACP desaturase, fatty acid desaturase, or acyl-ACP thioesterase; or (d) decrease or eliminate the expression of an enzyme encoded by one or more genes that encode a stearoyl ACP desaturase or fatty acid desaturase, and express a product of an exogenous gene encoding an active beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, or acyl-ACP thioesterase; and recovering the natural oil from the cell, and optionally further processing the natural oil to produce a food, fuel, or chemical product, where the natural oil has an altered fatty acid profile due to the recombinant nucleic acids. INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are:    (1) a recombinant cell comprising recombinant nucleic acids operable to: (a) decrease or eliminate the expression of an enzyme encoded by one or more genes that encode a beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, stearoyl ACP desaturase, fatty acid desaturase, or acyl-ACP thioesterase, and optionally where the cell comprises recombinant nucleic acids operable to decrease or eliminate the expression of two copies of a gene encoding a beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, stearoyl ACP desaturase, or fatty acid desaturase, or acyl-ACP thioesterase; or (b) express a product of an exogenous gene encoding an active beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, stearoyl ACP desaturase, or fatty acid desaturase, or acyl-ACP thioesterase; or (c) decrease or eliminate the expression of an enzyme encoded by one or more genes that encode a beta-ketoacyl- ACP synthase I or beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, and express a product of an exogenous gene encoding an active stearoyl ACP desaturase, fatty acid desaturase, or acyl-ACP thioesterase; or (d) decrease or eliminate the expression of an enzyme encoded by one or more genes that encode a stearoyl ACP desaturase or fatty acid desaturase, and express a product of an exogenous gene encoding an active beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase I, beta-ketoacyl-ACP synthase II, or acyl-ACP thioesterase;    (2) a natural oil or oil-containing product produced from the cell;    (3) a method for producing a natural oil comprising triacylglycerides that comprise ricinoleic acid, or a product produced from the natural oil, comprising cultivating a cell of a recombinant microorganism, the cell comprising recombinant nucleic acids operable to express a product of an exogenous gene encoding an active oleate 12-hydroxylase, so as to synthesize the ricinoleic acid;    (4) a product produced by the method; and    (5) a microorganism cell comprising recombinant nucleic acids operable to express a product of an exogenous gene encoding an active oleate 12-hydroxylase, so as to synthesize ricinoleic acid.
