A method for production of a dihydrochalcone, especially of phloretin, using a transgenic microorganism, containing a nucleic acid section (a), comprising or consisting of a gene coding for a bacterial chalcone isomerase, and/or a nucleic acid section (a'), comprising or consisting of a gene coding for a plant chalcone isomerase, and a nucleic acid section (b), comprising or consisting of a gene coding for a bacterial enoate reductase, corresponding transgenic microorganisms, containing a nucleic acid section (a), comprising or consisting of a gene coding for a bacterial chalcone isomerase, and/or a nucleic acid section (a&#x2032;), comprising or consisting of a gene coding for a plant chalcone isomerase, and/or a nucleic acid section (b), comprising or consisting of a gene coding for a bacterial enoate reductase, and host cells, containing one or more identical or different such vectors.
