General Information Comment Organism
physiological function downregulation of pectate lyase by antisense transformation leads to transgenicplants with fruits firmer than the control. The average molecular masses of transgenic pectins are higher than that of the control. The mean length values for chelated chains increases from 84 nm in the control to 95.5 nm in antisense samples. Sodium carbonate-soluble polyuronides are longer in transgenic fruits. Transgenic pectins show a more complex structure, with a higher percentage of branched chains than the control Fragaria x ananassa
