The alpha-tocophenol content is increased in leaves of the transgenic Nicotiana tabacum (tabacco) plants, whereas the transgenic tobacco seeds contain a significantly increased gamma-tocochromanol level. Overexpression of the barley 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase gene in plastids of tobacco does not prove to be advantageous in comparison to transgenic tobacco plants expressing high 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase level in the cytoplasma. |
