                    b) a fragment of the potato gene coding for granule-              
               bound starch synthase inserted in the antisense direction,             
               wherein said fragment is selected from the group consisting            
               of SEQ ID No. 1, SEQ ID No. 2 and SEQ ID No. 3.                        
               8.   Antisense construct as claimed in claim 7,                        
               characterized in that the promoter is an isolated promoter             
               from the potato gene coding for granule-bound starch syntase           
               (GBSS).                                                                
               9.   Antisense construct as claimed in claim 7,                        
               characterized in that the promoter is selected from the                
               group consisting of the CaMV 35S promoter and the patatin I            
               promoter.                                                              
               10.  A vector comprising a fragment of the potato gene                 
               coding for granule-bound starch synthase (GBSS), wherein               
               said fragment is selected from the group consisting of                 
               SEQ ID No. 1, SEQ ID No. 2 and SEQ ID No. 3, and said                  
               fragment is inserted in the antisense direction in                     
               relation to a promoter immediately upstream from the                   
               gene fragment.                                                         
               11.  Vector comprising the antisense construct as claimed              
               in claim 7.                                                            
               12.  Cell of potato plant whose genome comprises the                   
               antisense construct as claimed in claim 7.                             
               13.  Potato plant whose genome comprises the antisense                 
               construct as claimed in claim 7.                                       
               14.  Potato tubers whose genome comprises the antisense                
               construct as claimed in claim 7.                                       
               15.  Seeds from potato plant, whose genome comprises                   
               the antisense construct as claimed in claim 7.
