Description
The gene coding for a sucrose transporter (CS-sut-SPIOL) from spinach (Spinacia oleracea) is constitutively expressed. The heterologous SoSUT enhances the sucrose transport into the phloem, thus increasing the availability of sucrose for tuber formation and development.
As a result of the genetic modification the transgenic potato plants show a 10-20 % increase in tuber yield due to an increase in the number of tubers per plant.
Recipient Organism or Parental Organisms
The term Recipient organism refers to an organism (either already modified or non-modified) that was subjected to genetic modification, whereas Parental organisms refers to those that were involved in cross breeding or cell fusion.

Additional Information
Additional Information
This deliberate release was proposed by Hoechst Schering AgrEvo GmbH.
AgrEvo GmbH, a company owned by Hoechst AG and Schering AG, merged with Rhône-Poulenc to become Aventis CropScience in 1999. This then merged with Bayer to become Bayer CropScience in 2001.
Therefore, Bayer CropScience is the contact point for questions regarding this deliberate release.

Overexpression of the sucrose transporter SoSUT1 in potato results in alterations in leaf carbon partitioning and in tuber metabolism but has little impact on tuber morphology
