Carnation variety moonberry flowers have a unique violet/mauve colour due to the biosynthesis of the anthocyanin pigment delphinidin. This pigment is not produced in non-transgenic carnation. The transgenic lines were derived from the parent cultivar which is a pink coloured carnation.
The genes introduced into the transgenic carnation lines included a functional dihydroflavonol reductase encoding gene (dfr) from petunia and a gene (hf1) encoding the enzyme flavonoid 3', 5'-hydroxylase (F3'5'H). Expression of the F3'5'H encoding gene allows for the production of blue coloured delphinidin anthocyanin pigments.
A Dihydroflavonol-4-reductase sequence from carnation has been utilised in a dsDFR format in order to suppress expression of the endogenous carnation DFR gene, thus allowing dominant expression of the introduced petunia Dihydroflavonol-4-reductase.

The dihydroflavonol-4-reductase sequence from carnation is inserted in a sense/ antisense orientation. The transcription product results in the formation of a dsDFR which suppress the expression of the endogenous DFR gene, thus allowing dominant expression of the introduced petunia Dihydroflavonol-4-reductase thus leading to the synthesis of delphinidin imparting a violet/mauve colour to the carnation.

Moonberry was developed using recombinant DNA techniques to produce flowers with a unique violet/mauve colour by introducing three genes that function together in the biosynthesis of the anthocyanin pigment delphinidin.
The transgenic lines were derived from the parent cultivar which is a pink coloured carnation.The genes introduced into the transgenic carnation lines included a functional dihydroflavonol reductase encoding gene (dfr) and a gene (hf1) encoding the enzyme flavonoid 3', 5'-hydroxylase (F3'5'H), a member of the NADPH-Cytochrome P450 reductase family.
Expression of the F3'5'H encoding gene allows for the production of blue coloured delphinidin anthocyanin pigments, which are not normally found in carnations. Expression of a dsDFR construct suppresses the activity of endogenous DFR.
