Biosynthetic Gene Pyramiding Leads to Ascorbate Accumulation with Enhanced Oxidative Stress Tolerance in Tomato
Ascorbic acid (AsA) has high antioxidant activities, and its biosynthesis has been well studied by engineering of a single structural gene (SG) in staple crops, such as tomato (<i>Solanum lycopersicum</i>). However, engineering the AsA metabolic pathway by multi-SG for biofortification r...
