Title:
PRODUCTION OF FRUIT, SEED AND HYBRID TOMATO
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPH0231625
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To improve the storage life of plants by incorporating DNA antisense with RNA forming fruit ripening enzymes into the genome of the plants. CONSTITUTION: While any fruit ripening enzymes may be selected, such enzymes include the enzymes relating to the decomposition of cell walls at the time of fruit ripening. For example, xylanase, α-galactosidase, etc., are the enzymes associated therewith. The DNA capable of synthesizing the RNA antisense with the antisense RNA of such enzymes is prepd. When this DNA is incorporated into the plants, the synthesis of the fruit ripening enzymes is prohibited. The softening of the fruits is suppressed and, therefore, the long-term preservation is made possible.
