additional information Agrobacteria that contain vector pBI121-CMTPCRBKT with gene CrBKT and the control vector pBI121 are individually injected into the pumpkin fruits at 2, 5, 10, 15, and 25 days after pollination, respectively, the fruit pulp is light reddish in 2-day and 5-day fruits with darker color in pulp of 5-day fruit while there is no red pigment accumulated in more than 10-day fruits. The accumulated red pigments are canthaxanthin and astaxanthin. CrBKT is expressed in the transformed tissue. The CrBKT gene can be only expressed in less than 5-day fruit and it can convert carotenoid in young pumpkin into ketocarotenoid. But the expression of exogenous gene is integrated into the flesh tissue of ripening fruits Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
