To provide a method for producing a phospholipid containing a long chain highly unsaturated fatty acid as a component.
The phospholipid is obtained by cultivating Mortierella alpina of a microorganism belonging to genus Mortierella on a condition of accumulating the phospholipid in microbes of the microorganism, wherein the composition ratio of isopalmitic acid of a branched fatty acid is ≤5% based on the total amount of the fatty acids contained as constituents of all phospholipids contained in the culture products. As the phospholipids obtained by the method, glycerophospholipids such as phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidic acid and cardiolipin are listed.
