Abstract
Investigation of agrobiological properties of ctb (cholera toxin B subunit) transgenic tomato under in vivo condition
Highlights
Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) is a very nutritious fruit vegetable, have good flavors and attractive colors, so they are often used in food processing
Characteristics of growth and development of ctb transgenic tomato plants compared with control
Chlorophyll content of ctb transgenic tomato plants compared with control
Summary
Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) is a very nutritious fruit vegetable, have good flavors and attractive colors, so they are often used in food processing. This is an important agricultural crop with a global productivity in 2007 of about 120 million tons (Passam et al, 2007) and about 181 million tons in 2017 as reported by FAO (2019, with date reference on May 1st, 2019). This work, aims to investigate the physiological and biochemical characteristics related to yield and fruit quality of ctb transgenic tomatoes, a gene encoding the CTB antigen which is a potential candidate for cholera vaccine, to evaluate their growth and development under in vivo condition
