Abstract
DNA constructs comprise a DNA sequence homologous to some or all of the gene encoded by the clone pTOM36. The constructs may further comprise a transcriptional initiation region operative in plants for transcribing this DNA sequence, optionally in the antisense direction to produce mRNA complementary to the pTOM36 gene. Transformed plant cells and plants may be derived from such constructs: fruit from the plants (such as tomatoes) are expected to have modified ripening properties.
