ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates generally to methods for modifying the sucrose content of fruit. In particular, it relates to methods for increasing fruit sucrose content by inhibiting the expression of acid invertase. Additionally, it relates to methods for decreasing fruit sucrose content and increasing fruit hexose content by over expressing acid invortase.
