Abstract:
The present invention provides isolated nucleic acid sequences encoding plant polygalacturonase inhibitor proteins (PGIP) which inhibit the activity of fungal polygalacturonases. Transgenic plants expressing a heterologous PGIP show increased resistance to fungi which normally infect the plants.

Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for improving fruit quality in plants that have low or reduced levels of Golden2-like (GLK) activity in the green fruit (e.g., cultivated tomato). The methods involve introgressing genes encoding functional GLKs into the plant so that they are expressed in the green fruit of the plant and thereby increase chloroplast biogenesis in the fruit. The plants of the invention have improved fruit quality, such as increased levels of starch, soluble solids, and/or sugars.
The flavor seems to have gone missing in the latter part of the 20th century, said Klee, when growers started to focus on other priorities -- especially yield and shelf life. This wasnt all bad, according to Ann Powell, a biochemist at the University of California, Davis. Its hard to put blame on

Gene Boosts Tomato's Color, But May Make It Less Tasty
The study is a rare chance to translate scientific findings to the real world, said Ann Powell, a research biochemist who led the UC Davis teams efforts on the research. It provides a strategy to re-capture quality characteristics that had been unknowingly bred out of modern cultivated tomatoes,

Scientists crack the code behind bad tasting tomatoes
This information about the gene responsible for the trait in wild and traditional varieties provides a strategy to recapture quality characteristics that had been unknowingly bred out of modern cultivated tomatoes, said Ann Powell, a biochemist in the universitys Department of Plant Sciences and
"When you have fruit or berries and you sprinkle sugar on top to accentuate the flavors, you can see how every little bit helps," said Ann Powell, a biochemist at the University of California, Davis. Our sensitivity to sweetness makes a gene for sugar production extra-important. "By knowing which ge
Ann Powell, a biochemist at UC Davis' Department of Plant Sciences and one of the lead authors of the study, said they made the find by accident. The scientists initially started studying the ripening process and how tomatoes get their color 10 years ago. After working on it for three or four years

Researchers isolate reason market tomatoes don't taste as good as homegrown
Heirloom tomatoes from your garden, while they might taste better, take longer to turn from green to red near the stem as they ripen. This uneven ripening makes them harder to commercially harvest on a large scale, says Ann Powell of University of California Davis, lead author of the study. Incomple
