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
