Improved fruit α‐tocopherol, carotenoid, squalene and phytosterol contents through manipulation of Brassica juncea 3‐HYDROXY‐3‐METHYLGLUTARYL‐COA SYNTHASE1 in transgenic tomato

3‐Hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl‐coenzyme A synthase (HMGS) in the mevalonate (MVA) pathway generates isoprenoids including phytosterols.
