Professor Seymour said: «We already have a line harboring a very small section of the S. pennellii genome with the alternative form of the pectate lyase gene.
Natural variation exists in the levels of pectate lyase gene expression in wild relatives of cultivated tomato and these can be used for conventional breeding purposes.
DNA sequence differences between the pectate lyase genes from the cultivated tomato and S. pennellii can then be used as markers to screen the progeny from this cross.
Not exact matches
Professor Seymour and his team have identified a gene that encodes a pectate lyase which normally degrades the pectin in the tomato cell walls during ripening.
High levels of gene expression were found in both strains for genes involved in growth, energy and respiration (e.g., ribosomal proteins, ATP synthase, pseudoazurin), and the C - 1 metabolic carbon such as methanol dehydrogenase, ribulose monophosphate enzymes (D - arabino -3-hexulose 6 - phosphate formaldehyde - lyase, 6 - phospho -3-hexuloisomerase), formaldehyde activating enzymes (Data S6, Fig.
