- Observation StGA20ox1 expression is relatively high in leaves and regulated by daylength.
- Intervention effect Overexpression produced taller potato plants.
- Intervention effect Tubers of overexpressing plants had shorter dormancy.
- Intervention effect Tubers of overexpressing plants developed sprouts with elongated internodes.
- Intervention effect Antisense plants had shorter stems and internodes than controls.
- Intervention effect Antisense plants tuberized earlier than controls.
- Intervention effect Antisense plants had increased tuber yields.
- Intervention effect Antisense inhibition had no visible effect on tuber dormancy time.
- Observation Antisense tubers formed sprouts with shortened internodes at dormancy end.
- Intervention effect Antisense lines had decreased endogenous GA20 and GA1 in apex and first leaves.
