PCT No. PCT/IL97/00051 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 9, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 9, 1998 PCT Filed Feb. 13, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/30165 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 21, 1997The present invention provides an improved method for the production of genetic parthenocarpy in plants, which includes the steps of: providing a cassette including a DNA coding for modulation of auxin effects in plants, such as the rolB gene, and a promoter specific for the ovary between anthesis and early fruit development to control the DNA sequence and introducing the cassette into a plant. Preferably, the DNA is introduced by transformation of plant material (including seed derived cotyledons), and regeneration of transformed plants. Preferably the method also includes the step of screening the plant for either facultative or obligatory parthenocarpic characteristics. |
