Journal ArticleDOI
Manipulation of the Blue Light Photoreceptor Cryptochrome 2 in Tomato Affects Vegetative Development, Flowering Time, and Fruit Antioxidant Content
Leonardo Giliberto,Gaetano Perrotta,Patrizia Pallara,James L. Weller,Paul D. Fraser,Peter M. Bramley,Alessia Fiore,Mario Tavazza,Giovanni Giuliano +8 more
TL;DR: Tomato CRY2 overexpressors show phenotypes similar to but distinct from their Arabidopsis counterparts, but also several novel ones, including a high-pigment phenotype, resulting in overproduction of anthocyanins and chlorophyll in leaves and of flavonoids and lycopene in fruits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic engineering of beta-carotene and lycopene content in tomato fruit.
Carlo Rosati,Riccardo Aquilani,Sridhar Dharmapuri,Patrizia Pallara,Carla Marusic,Raffaela Tavazza,Florence Bouvier,Bilal Camara,Giovanni Giuliano +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, DNA constructs aimed at up-regulating (OE construct) or down controlling (AS construct) the expression of the beta-Lcy gene in a fruit-specific fashion were introduced, via Agrobacterium mediated transformation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic engineering of xanthophyll content in tomato fruits
Sridhar Dharmapuri,Carlo Rosati,Patrizia Pallara,Riccardo Aquilani,Florence Bouvier,Bilal Camara,Giovanni Giuliano +6 more
TL;DR: This is the first example of successful metabolic engineering of xanthophyll content in tomato fruits by overexpressing the lycopene β‐cyclase and β‐carotene hydroxylase genes under the control of the fruit‐specific Pds promoter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agrobacterium -mediated and electroporation-mediated transformation of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: a comparative study
Paola Mini,Olivia Costantina Demurtas,Silvia Valentini,Silvia Valentini,Patrizia Pallara,G. Aprea,Paola Ferrante,Giovanni Giuliano +7 more
TL;DR: Agrobacterium transformation of Chlamydomonas does not present significant advantages over electroporation, with the possible exception of its use in insertional mutagenesis, due to the higher proportion of within-gene, single-locus insertions.
