Abstract
The present invention provides plants with a modified taste, solids content and/or texture. The invention also provides methods of obtaining such plants via transformation with DNA constructs containing genes encoding enzymes capable of degrading plant polysaccharides and optionally additional genes encoding enzymes which are capable of further modifying the degradation products resulting from the first degradation step.
