Embodiment

[0197] Referring to Figure 2, the inventors used single hairpin constructs targeting the genes encoding the CODM and T6ODM enzymes to test the hypothesis that plants containing high levels of thebaine (codeine and morphine reduced levels) plants can be produced by simultaneously reducing the activity of T6ODM and CODM enzymes.

[0198] Reference attached image 3 , the coding sequences of CODM and T6ODM genes share a very high level of identity. Therefore, the inventors created a single expression construct to target by RNAi the endogenous gene encoding CODM and the endogenous gene encoding T6ODM from a portion of the T6ODM coding sequence. Portions of the T6ODM coding sequence of the sense and antisense portions of the RNAi gene construct described in Figure 2 are in image 3 are underlined. A 342 base pair sense fragment was amplified from cDNA isolated from poppy plant material using primers AAAGGCGCGCCCCTTGTCCTCAACCAAATAAAATTTAAATTCCACTTTTAAACAAAGC). A 342 base pair an...

Abstract

The invention relates to the production of opium poppy plants having high levels of thebaine. More particularly, the disclosure relates to the production of opium poppies having high levels of thebaine by simultaneously reducing the expression of genes encoding thebaine 6-0- demethylase (T60DM) and codeine 3-0-demethylase (CODM).

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the production of opium poppy with high levels of thebaine. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to the production of thebaine with high levels by simultaneously reducing the expression / activity of thebaine 6-O-demethylase (T6ODM) and codeine 3-O-demethylase (CODM). Because of the poppy. Background technique [0002] Opioids are psychoactive substances derived from the poppy (Papaver somniferum) or its synthetic analogues. Opioids have the potential to cause substance dependence, characterized by a strong need to take opioids, difficulty controlling opioid use, persistent opioid use despite harmfulness, opioid use taking precedence over other activities and obligations, tolerance Increased receptivity and the body's withdrawal response when opioids are discontinued. [0003] As of 2014, an estimated 17 million people were living with opioid dependence (ie opioid addiction). Most people who are dependen...
