Abstract excerpt
Petunia mutant RL01 was transformed with maize A1 and gerbera gdfr cDNAs, which both encode dihydroflavonol-4-reductase (DFR) activity. The same Agrobacterium vector and the same version of the CaMV 35S promoter were used in both experiments. Transformation with the cDNAs resulted in production o...
