General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function transgenic tobacco plants co-expressing INO1 and IMT1 gene either in cytosol or in chloroplasts accumulate higher amount of total inositol (free and methyl inositol) compared to nontransgenic plants. These plants are more competent in terms of growth potential and photosynthetic activity and are less prone to oxidative stress under salt stress Mesembryanthemum crystallinum
