General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function transgenic tobacco plants expressing VTE2 under the control of stress-inducible promoters show increased levels of alpha-tocopherol when exposed to drought conditions. The accumulation of alpha-tocopherol correlates with higher water content and increased photosynthetic performance and less oxidative stress damage Solanum chilense
