Abstract

We studded the influence of the expression of SUC2 gene encoding invertase of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae (apoplastic version of enzyme localization) on morphological, physiological and biochemical traits of transformed potato plants (Solanum tuberosum L., cv. Désirée). It was shown that invertase activity increased the sugars content in the apoplast, leaves and roots of the transformed plants and led to changes in their morphometric and physiological parameters. Our data indicate higher resistance of transformed plants to severe low temperature conditions.
