<p>Provided are DNA constructs that comprise a DNA molecule encoding a protein with D-galacturonate reductase activity involved in L-ascorbic acid synthesis inplant cells and a region for initiating functional transcription in plants. Preferred constructs include SEQ. ID. No. 1 or analogues thereof. The constructs have utility in increasing vitamin C production in plants, and making plants more resistant to stress. Also provided are related materials and methods for performing the invention.</p> |
