Non-transgenic Tomato Varieties Having Increased Shelf Life Post-Harvest Due to Alterations in Beta-Galactosidase 4

摘要

The present invention provides a series of independent artificial actions to cause, the betagalactosidase activity of non-transgenic mutant has the 4 of at least one tomato beta-galactosidase gene of these mutation at them at least one 4 transgenic tomato of tomato and a kind of 4 transgenic tomato beta galactosidases for creating and identifying similar and/or other mutation are concentrated by screening and/or individual tomato plants. Identification according to the present invention simultaneously produces being firm with that for Fruit Ripening of Tomato, when compared to have reduce adopt after tamato fruit softening, be mutated from Wild-type non-transgenic due to they at least one tomato beta-galactosidase 4 genes.
