ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to DNA sequences and plasmids containing these sequences which can be integrated into a plant genome and which modify the activity of the sucrose-phosphate-synthase (sps) of the plant. The invention relates further to derivatives of the DNA sequences of the invention that are obtained by exchange of single bases or by deletion or insertion of base sequences and which code for proteins with comparable activity to sucrose-phosphate-synthase. Methods for transforming plant cells and regenerating plants from the cells which exhibit modified sucrose-phosphate-synthase activity are also described.
