GENETIC SEQUENCES ENCODING FLAVONOID PATHWAY ENZYMES AND USES THEREFOR

摘要

The invention relates to a genetic sequences encoding flavonoid pathway enzymes and uses therefore. Specifically, the present invention relates to a nucleic acid isolate comprising a sequence of nucleotides encoding, or complementary to a sequence encoding, a dihydrokaempferol (DHK) hydroxylating enzyme or derivative or part thereof. The present invention also relates to transgenic plants carrying and expressing the above mentioned nucleic acid material.
