Using electron microscopes, another team at Instituto Adolfo Lutz, led by Cecilia Luiza Simoes, looked at nucleotide sequences in the new strain.
The invention further relates to the use of the nucleotide sequence in the sense or antisense orientation to inhibit the expression of the plant gene corresponding to the CJAS1 sequence as a means to alter seed metabolism in plants, particularly cruciferous plants, more particularly Brassica species, to generate seeds with reduced fiber content and/or altered seed coats.
