Altered expression of the caffeine synthase gene in a naturally caffeine-free mutant of Coffea arabica

In this work, we studied the biosynthesis of caffeine by examining the expression of genes involved in this biosynthetic pathway in coffee fruits containing normal or low levels of this substance. The amplification of gene-specific transcripts during fruit development revealed that low-caffeine frui...
