Transgenic plants and plant cells with reduced expression of invertase inhibitors

摘要

The invention relates to transgenic plants and plant cells comprising a reduced expression of invertase inhibitors. The modification of the expression of the invertase inhibitors is achieved by introducing a cDNA sequence in an antisense orientation with respect to a promoter. The expression of the antisense DNA sequence is under the regulation of either the CaMV35S promoter or a tissue specific promoter.
