Abstract excerpt

Here we investigate the role of hexoses in the metabolism of the developing potato (Solanum tuberosum) tuber by the expression of a bacterial xylose isomerase which catalyzes the interconversion of glucose and fructose. Previously, we found that glycolysis was induced in transgenic tubers expressing a yeast invertase in the cytosol and postulated that this was due either to the decreased levels of sucrose or to...
