Potato plant was modified with the insertion of a gene coding for a sucrose synthase from Solanum tuberosum that is specifically expressed in the companion cells.
The modification is intended to enhance the provision of energy for active loading of the phloem with photoassimilates as well as the development of young tubers and the mobilisation of carbohydrates for the synthesis of reserve starch, with the view to increasing tuber yield.
As a result of the genetic modification the tuber yield and the number of tubers per plant are increased by 10-20 % in the transgenic potato plants.

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.
