Title:
RICE SUCROSE PHOSPHATE SYNTHETASE GENE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPH06277068
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To provide a DNA of a rice sucrose phosphate synthetase gene.
CONSTITUTION: A gene coding a sucrose phosphate synthetase is specified from a rice genom DNA library. The sucrose synthesis activity can be promoted by introducing the sucrose phosphate synthetase gene. Furthermore, the amount of sucrose transported to a storage tissue can be increased to improve the supply of sugar as a material for starch synthesis by promoting the sucrose synthesis activity.
