General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction KASII inhibition does not significantly influence the wax ester and triacylglycerol levels in the plant, but the the C16/C18 ratio is significantly increased in total lipid extracts of leaf tissue when KASIIRNAi-3 is expressed with or without wax ester biosynthesis gene Nicotiana benthamiana
