Sentence examples for transgenic fruit from inspiring English sources
Studies have begun on the potential for synergistic interactions between the PPV CP gene and the other common viruses of Prunus spp. In the future we will be participating in investigating the toxicity or/and the allergenicity of transgenic fruit products and, more importantly, transgenic lines will be developed that express transgenes only in vegetative parts of the plant and not in the fruit.
Sensory analyses of the transgenic fruit clarified the contribution of DMMF to the overall strawberry flavour.
