Basic Genetic Modification
| Gene Introduced | Gene Source | Product | Function |
| asn1 | Solanum tuberosum | double stranded RNA | Designed to generate dsRNA to down regulate Asn1 transcripts which lowers asparagine formation |
| ppo5 | Solanum verrucosum | double stranded RNA | Designed to generate dsRNA to down regulate Ppo5 transcripts which lowers black spot bruise development |
| Rpi-vnt1 | Solanum venturii | late blight resistance protein | confers resistance to potato late blight |
| PhL | Solanum tuberosum | double stranded RNA | Designed to generate dsRNA to down regulate PhL transcripts which lowers reducing sugars |
| R1 | Solanum tuberosum | double stranded RNA | Designed to generate dsRNA to down regulate R1 transcripts which lowers reducing sugars |
| Vlnv | Solanum tuberosum | double stranded RNA | downregulates VInv transcripts which lowers reducing sugars |

Regulatory and Biosafety Information
The GM Approval Database, or GMAD, is one of ISAAA’s unique features that compiles all the available information about biotech/GM crops that have been approved for planting and importation for food and feed, and commercialization. ISAAA sources out the information from publicly available decision documents per country, Biosafety Clearing Houses and peer-reviewed scholarly articles to maintain the credibility of the database. Your contribution can help expand and maintain the GMAD and make useful information more available to researchers, students, and the general public. You can help by donating as little as $10.
