Tomato fruit ripening is an elaborate genetic trait correlating with significant changes at physiological and biochemical levels. Sugar metabolism plays an important role in this highly orchestrated process and ultimately determines the quality and nutritional value of fruit. However, the mode of molecular regulation is not well understood. Galactinoal-sucrose galactosyltransferase (GSGT), a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs), can transfer the galactose unit from 1-α-D-galactosyl-myo-inositol to sucrose and yield raffinose, or catalyze the reverse reaction. In the present study, the expression of
