Synthesis of fructans in tubers of transgenic starch-deficient potato plants does not result in an increased allocation of carbohydrates.

Planta - 1 Jan 1996

Röber M, Geider K, Müller-Röber B, Willmitzer L

Abstract excerpt

Inhibition of starch biosynthesis in transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Désirée) plants (by virtue of antisense inhibition of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase) has recently been reported to influence tuber formation and drastically reduce dry matter content of tubers, indicating a reduction...
