Abstract

The present invention relates to compounds according to general formula (I) with enhanced absorption of UV-B irradiation. The present invention also relates to an UV-B tolerant plant and a method for enhanced production of compounds according to general formula (I) in a plant or plant cell. Furthermore, the invention relates to a nucleic acid sequence SEQ-ID No. 1 encoding FPT2 catalyzing the production of compounds according to general formula (I). The invention further relates to compositions comprising compounds according to general formula (I). Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of conferring UV-B tolerance to a plant as well as an UV-B tolerant plant comprising the nucleic acid sequence SEQ-ID No. 1 encoding FPT2 catalyzing the production of compounds according to general formula (I).
