摘要： DNA sequence of an acetyl Coenzyme A carboxylase from plants are inserted into the genome of plants in sense or antisense orientation in order to inhibit expression of the gene product of the endogenous ACCase gene, resulting in reduced conversion of the enzyme's substrate, acetyl Coenzyme A, to fatty acid synthesis, leaving the substrate available for diversion into other biosynthesis pathways. One such diversion may be accomplished by providing the plant genome with genes specifying the synthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoate polymers.
