Abstract
⺠Sweetpotato IbCHY-β RNAi transgenic calli increased β-carotene and total carotenoids. ⺠Transgenic cell lines also showed enhanced antioxidant capacity under salt stress. ⺠Interestingly, the transgenic calli accumulated more ABA content. ⺠It is suggested that enhanced levels of carotenoids contribute to stress tolerance in transgenic plants.
