Patent

CA 2272052

Modified plants are disclosed which have enhanced starch-producing capability as a result of a change in the concentration of one or more of the metabolites which take part in glycolysis and the TCA cycle in the plant. The effect may be achieved for example by a genetic modification to reduce the activity of NAD-malic enzyme.

L'invention concerne des plantes modifiées présentant une augmentation de la capacité de production d'amidon résultant d'une modification de la concentration d'un ou de plusieurs métabolites participant à la glycolyse et au cycle d'acide tricarboxylique (TCA) de la plante. Ceci peut être obtenu par exemple au moyen d'une modification génétique afin de diminuer l'activité de l'enzyme NAD-malique.
