  • TRANSFORMED PLANT AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING EXUDATE CONTAINING SUGAR USING TRANSFORMED PLANT
    Publication number: 20200071715
    Abstract: The production of exudate containing sugar from a plant at a high concentration is provided. A nucleic acid encoding a transporter involved in sugar transportation having a certain consensus sequence derived from the amino acid sequences of the SWEET proteins classified in the clade III is introduced and/or expression of the protein is enhanced.
    Type: Application
    Filed: November 15, 2019
    Publication date: March 5, 2020
    Applicants: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHA, THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO, NATIONAL AGRICULTURE AND FOOD RESEARCH ORGANIZATION
    Inventors: Chikara OHTO, Madoka YONEKURA, Naohiro AOKI, Ryu OHSUGI, Tatsuro HIROSE

  • Plant variant, method for producing plant variant, and method for accumulating soluble sugar
    Patent number: 9593343
    Abstract: This invention is intended to allow accumulation of large quantities of soluble sugars in tissue other than plant seeds. A plant is modified so as to suppress a gene encoding a subunit exhibiting the highest sequence similarity with the subunit encoded by the AGPL1 gene of rice among subunits constituting.

  • TRANSFORMED PLANT AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING EXUDATE CONTAINING SUGAR USING TRANSFORMED PLANT
    Publication number: 20160319292
    Abstract: The production of exudate containing sugar from a plant at a high concentration is provided. It is provided by introducing a nucleic acid encoding an AtSWEET8 protein or a homologous nucleic acid of the nucleic acid and/or enhancing the expression of the protein encoded by the nucleic acid or the homologous nucleic acid.
