Potato plant was modified with the insertion of a polyphosphate kinase from Escherichia coli, that has been N-terminally fused to the chloroplast transit sequence of the ferredoxin:NADP+ oxidoreductase from Spinacia oleracea. It is selectively expressed in green plant parts under the control of the L700 promoter.
The modification is expected to lead to increase tuber yield through the actions of PPK which permits part of the chemical energy of the ATP to be stored in the form of polyphosphate.
As a result of the genetic modification the in tuber yield of the transgenic potato plants is increased by 10-30 % due to an increase in the number of tubers per plant.

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.

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.
