Influence of Overexpression of Stilbene Synthase VaSTS7 Gene on Resveratrol Production in Transgenic Cell Cultures of Grape Vitis amurensis Rupr

摘要

We studied reservatrol biosynthesis in cells of the grape V. amurensis with overexpression of the VaSTS7 gene. The present study demonstrated that overexpression of the VaSTS7 gene increased the resveratrol content in transgenic grape cells by 3.2-6.6 times as compared with control cells. Also, the transformation enhanced dry biomass accumulation; resveratrol production therefore increased significantly, by 4.7-9.7 times, as compared with control cells.
