Patent

CA 2291944

This invention relates to a method of controlling sprout formation in plants and parts thereof including vegetative storage organs. The method involves the use of target and organ specific promoters to control expression of DNA sequences to inhibit sprouting. Sprouting is restored by switching on expression of DNA sequences using inducible promoter regions where sprouting may be controlled by, for example, application of an external chemical stimulus.

L'invention concerne un procédé pour contrôler la formation de pousses dans les plantes et dans des parties de ces dernières comprenant des organes de stockage végétatifs. Ce procédé consiste à utiliser des promoteurs spécifiques d'organes et des promoteurs cibles pour contrôler l'expression des séquences d'ADN et inhiber la formation de pousses. Celle-ci est ensuite restaurée en commutant l'expression des séquences d'ADN à l'aide de zones de promoteurs inductibles dans lesquelles la formation de pousses peut être contrôlée, par exemple, en appliquant un stimulus chimique externe.
