General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function T1 leaves of transgenic tomato plants overexpressing the apple enzyme contain1.8- to 3.6fold and1.6- to 2.9fold higher levels of alpha-tocopherol and gamma-tocopherol, respectively, than those in control plants. The levels of alpha-tocopherol and gamma-tocopherol in T1 fruits increases up to 1.7fold and 3.1fold, respectively Malus domestica
