Abstract

See full text

Novel plants are described which produce and secrete chitinase as the result of the introduction of foreign DNA linked to a sequence encoding chitinase, an enzyme capable of degrading chitin present in fungi and nematodes. Novel plants that are resistant to cold damage are also described which are created by introduction of DNA encoding for the production of chitinase. The plants of the invention may also have enhanced levels of reducing sugars or sweetness, or produce fruit having enhanced levels of reducing sugars or sweetness, or may be selected for enhanced post-harvest storage life.
