Expression of a fungal sterol desaturase improves tomato drought tolerance, pathogen resistance and nutritional quality

Crop genetic engineering mostly aims at improving environmental stress (biotic and abiotic) tolerance as well as nutritional quality. Empowering a single crop with multiple traits is highly demanding and requires manipulation of more than one gene. However, we report improved drought tolerance and f...
