METHOD OF PRODUCING D-GLUCOSYL D-GLUCOSIDES (TREHALOSE) IN PLANT CELLS IN THE PRESENCE OF A TREHALASE INHIBITOR

摘要

The invention provides a process for producing trehalose in plant cells capable of producing trehalase by growing plant cells having the genetic information required for the production of trehalose and trehalase, or cultivating a plant or a part thereof comprising such plant cells, characterised in that said plant cells are grown, or said plant or a part thereof, is cultivated in the presence of a trehalase inhibitor.
