Abstract
This invention pertains to methods of increasing isoflavonoid production in isoflavonoid-producing plants by transforming plants with at least one construct expressing at least a portion of a flavanone 3-hydroxylase, a C1 myb transcription factor, and an R-type myc transcription factor that regulate expression of genes in the phenylpropanoid pathway.
