Organization:BASF Plant Science GmbH ()Phone:Fax:Email:
Fragments of the genes of the starch branching enzymes, be1 and be2, were introduced to modify the starch composition in potato tubers, thus raising the level of amylose.

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.

In potato line AM99-2003 a gene consisting of gbss promoter from Solanum tuberosum, the coding region fragments of be1 and be2 (starch-branching enzyme) in tandem and antisense orientation relative to the promoter and the nos polyadenylation sequence from Agrobacterium tumefaciens have been inserted into potato variety Dinamo thus reducing the amount of amylopectin in the starch fraction of the tuber.
In addition the neomycin phosphotransferase gene (nptII) connected to the Agrobacterium tumefaciens nopaline synthase promoter and g7 polyadenylation sequence from Agrobacterium tumefaciens has been inserted as selectable marker gene conferring resistance to kanamycin.
