There are specific ways of protecting the rights of the mother, but they are set by law. The mother cannot just change the will. Some states allow the widow to 'take against the will' and take the share she would be entitled to under the intestacy laws. Sometimes this is done for tax reasons.

If all assets were held by the couple as joint property with the right of survivorship then full ownership of the property passed to the father's companion when he died. The children would be entitled only to property owned by their father in his own name alone. Any such property would pass to his children under the state laws of intestacy if he died without a will.

The grantee on the deed is the owner of the property. If your father set up the ownership of the land to be in his elder son's name that is prima facie evidence that he wanted him to be the owner. In fact, since the deed is in his son's name the father is not legally connected to the property. = =
What are a father's parental rights in Louisiana?
The laws of intestacy in Louisiana are unique. If you die without a will in Louisiana the laws of intestacy will distribute your property to your spouse and children. The division of the property depends on whether the property is separate property or community property. Community property is property that was acquired by a married couple during their marriage. Separate property is property that was inherited, owned before marriage, or gifts. Generally, the spouse receives no separate property. It passes to your children or grandchildren. The surviving spouse receives none of the decedent's share of the community property if the couple has children. Your community property will go first to your children. If you do not have children, your spouse will receive your community property. This comment addresses spouse and children only. For the full picture of intestacy in Louisiana an internet search will provide numerous articles and sites that discuss the details.
If a deed was signed over to a sister but was meant for her to share with the others what can you do if the father dies?
If the property was conveyed to a sister by deed from her father then she is the owner of the property regardless of whether the father is living or deceased. Deeds have no other "meaning" except to convey property to the grantee on the deed unless other intentions are clearly stated in the deed. Father should not convey the property to one child if he really wants all his children to share in the property. By executing a deed to one child he is telling the world his intention is to transfer ownership to her alone. If father is deceased, unless you have written proof that your father intended that your sister was to hold the property in trust for all his children then you are out of luck. The grantee on a deed is the owner of the property unless there is written evidence convincing enough to persuade a judge to rule that others have an interest in the property.
Is there a law according to which father has distribute his property equally among all his sons?
I don't know what country you're talking about but there is no such law in the US. When a person dies, his or her property will be left to whomever is named to receive the property in the will. if there is no will, the property will go to the spouse. If there is no spouse, the property will be inherited equally by all children of the deceased. If there are no children, no spouse, and no will, then I'm not sure.
If mother is deceased and father is alive but property was in mother's name do adult children have a claim to it?
