Abstract
This invention relates to DNA sequences encoding sucrose phosphate synthase which can be integrated into a plant genome and which modify the activity of the sucrose-phosphate-synthase (sps) of the plant. Methods for transforming plant cells and regenerating plants from the cells which exhibit modified sucrose-phosphate-synthase activity are also described.
