MODULATION OF ENDOGENOUS MOGROSIDE PATHWAY GENES IN WATERMELON AND OTHER CUCURBITS

Provided herein are methods for increasing the level of mogrosides in plants, such as in Cucurbitaceae family plants (e.g., in watermelon), by genetically-modifying such plants to modulate the expression of endogenous mogroside pathway genes. Also disclosed herein are plants with increased levels of...

More Information
Summary:Provided herein are methods for increasing the level of mogrosides in plants, such as in Cucurbitaceae family plants (e.g., in watermelon), by genetically-modifying such plants to modulate the expression of endogenous mogroside pathway genes. Also disclosed herein are plants with increased levels of mogrosides, extract (e.g., sweetener) from such plants, parts (e.g., juice, seed, pulp, etc.) from such plants, and methods of producing such plants.
