PROCESS FOR PRODUCING INTERMEDIATE OF USEFUL ALKALOID BIOSYNTHESIS ACCORDING TO RNAI METHOD

摘要

A process for producing an intermediate of alkaloid biosynthesis, comprisinginhibiting the expression of an enzyme using a target alkaloid biosynthesisintermediate as a substrate by the employment of RNAi method in an alkaloidproducing plant cell, plant tissue or plant body. There is further provided anRNAi gene for use in the process.
