PCT No. PCT/AU96/00296 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 12, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 12, 1997 PCT Filed May 16, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/36716 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 21, 1996The present invention relates generally to novel approaches in generating transgenic plants exhibiting altered flower colour by the introduction of a nucleotide sequence encoding dihydroflavonol-4-reductase (DFR) which preferably acts on dihydromyricetin (DHM). More particularly, the present invention provides transgenic carnation plants and flowers cut therefrom exhibiting flower colouration not naturally associated with carnation plants. The present invention further contemplates methods for producing transgenic carnation plants with the altered flower colour.
