As the latter, unlike the former, is a high-capacity transport mechanism, cultured cells normally accumulate greater levels of vitamin C when exposed to increasing concentrations of DHA as compared with AA.

In homozygous T(4) transgenic seedlings, DHAR overexpression was increased up to 1.5 to 5.4 fold, which enhanced foliar ascorbic acid levels 2- to 4.25-fold and ratio of AsA/DHA about 3- to 16-fold relative to wild type.
