Cloning and Functional Analysis of Lycopene ɛ-Cyclase (IbLCYe) Gene from Sweetpotato, Ipomoea batatas (L.)Lam.

This paper reported firstly successful cloning of lycopene ε-cyclase (IbLCYe) gene from sweetpotato, Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam. Using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), IbLCYe gene was cloned from sweetpotato cv. Nongdafu 14 with high carotenoid content. The 1 805 bp cDNA sequence of IbLCYe gen...
