- Abstract:
A cDNA clone (DFR) encoding dihydroflavonol 4-reductase was identified
from tomato hypocotyls. Nucleotide and amino acid sequence comparisons to
Petunia hybrida, Antirrhinum majus and Zea mays DFR sequences confirmed
that the cDNA encodes the structural DFR gene. In tomato, the DFR sequence
appeared to be present as a single gene and mapped to a region on
chromosome 2 near two loci affecting anthocyanin pigmentation, are and aw.
DFR was expressed in both leaf and hypocotyl tissue. Sequencing data from
two DFR cDNA clones indicated there are alternative polyadenylation sites
on DFR.
