Abstract:
1. A plant or parts thereof comprising a vector comprising a nucleic acid sequence which: (a) encodes a fructosyltransferase protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2; (b) comprises the coding region of SEQ ID NO: 1; (c) has at least 90% sequence identity to the nucleic acid sequence of (a) or (b); (d) hybridizes to a full-length complementary strand of the nucleic acid sequence of (a), (b), or (c) under conditions of hybridization in 50% formamide, 5×SSC, 5×Denhardt's solution, 40 mM sodium phosphate pH 6.8, 0.5% (w/v) BSA, 1% (w/v) SDS, 0.1 mg/ml herring sperm DNA at 42° C. and washing in 0.5×SSC/0.5% SDS at 60° C.; or (e) is degenerate due to the genetic code in comparison to the sequence of (d).
