2.3.1.196 | malfunction | generation of transgenic petunia plants in which the expression of BPBT, the gene encoding the enzyme that uses benzoyl-CoA and benzyl alcohol to make benzyl benzoate, is reduced or eliminated. Elimination of benzyl benzoate formation decreases the endogenous pool of benzoic acid and methyl benzoate emission but increases emission of benzyl alcohol and benzaldehyde, confirming the contribution of benzyl benzoate to benzoic acid formation. Suppression of BPBT activity also affects the overall morphology of petunia plants, resulting in larger flowers and leaves, thicker stems, and longer internodes, which is consistent with the increased auxin transport in transgenic plants | Petunia x hybrida |
