Pathway Edits

  • LAR-short overexpression (truncated leucoanthocyanidin reductase variant) for low-DP catechin unit production
  • ANR-low expression (low-activity anthocyanidin reductase) to limit PA chain elongation
  • TT12-alt alternative vacuolar transporter preferentially sequesters short-chain PAs for smooth-finish accumulation
  • Biolistic tungsten-particle coating for leaf/seed explant delivery

Key Interventions

LAR-short truncation for low-DP catechin unit supply limiting proanthocyanidin chain elongationANR-low activity attenuation for reduced epicatechin extension and short PA distributionTT12-alt selective vacuolar transport for smooth-finish low-MW proanthocyanidin accumulationHigh-pressure helium particle acceleration at 1100 psi
