enzyme expression in Torenia hybrida leads to accumulation of hydroxycinnamic acids, predominantly p-coumaroylagmatine, in transgenic plants, and the hydroxycinnamic acids are isomerized from the trans-form to the cis-form in planta. The transgenic line which accumulates the highest amount of endogenous hydroxycinnamic acids, i.e. total hydroxycinnamic acids at 47.5 mM, is resistant to the necrotrophic fungus, Botrytis cinerea. The transformants are not significantly resistant to three representative herbivores, Frankliniella occidentalis, Aphis gossypii, and Tetranychus ludeni |
