发明名称 IDENTIFICATION AND USE OF TOMATO GENES CONTROLLING SALT/DROUGHT TOLERANCE AND FRUIT SWEETNESS
摘要 The present invention provides the identification and use of EGTom1 and/or EGTom2, homologs of EGTom1 and/or EGTom2, orthologs of EGTom1 and/or EGTom2, paralogs of EGTom1 and/or EGTom2, and fragments and variations thereof for altering salt tolerance, drought tolerance and/or sugar content of fruit (sweetness) in plants. The invention relates to the identification and use of nucleic acid sequences for salt/drought tolerance and fruit sweetness in plants.

主权项 1. A transgenic tomato plant, plant part, plant cell, or plant tissue culture comprising a construct comprising a nucleic acid encoding an EGTom polypeptide having 95% sequence identity to any one of SEQ ID NOs 8, 7, or 9-12; wherein said transgenic tomato plant, or transgenic tomato plant produced from said plant part, plant cell, or plant tissue culture, expresses said EGTom polypeptide, and has increased fruit sweetness compared to the fruit of an untransformed control tomato plant.
