Summary of 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 |
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 |
