Amflora (also known as EH92-527-1) is a genetically modified potato cultivar developed by BASF Plant Science. "Amflora" potato plants produce pure amylopectin starch that is processed to waxy potato starch. It was approved for industrial applications in the European Union on 2 March 2010 by the European Commission. [2]

BASF Plant Science has developed Amflora, a genetically modified starch potato which only produces one particular type of starch, for industrial applications, which optimises the further processing of starch and saves energy and water.

Amflora (EH92-527-1) is a GM potato produced by BASF (Ludwigshafen, Germany) that lacks amylose and instead contains amylopectin (>98%) as the predominant starch 1,2. Amylose ordinarily has to be...

The Amflora (EH92-527-1) potato is a genetically modified (GM) potato in which only starch of the amylopectin form is produced. This has been achieved by intervening with the biosynthesis of starch in this variety of potato. The Amflora potato is solely grown for the purposes of enhancing its industrial application.

Amflora is a starch potato developed by BASF for the production of specialty starch. Potato starch consists of two types of starch with very different properties: amylose and amylopectin. Instead of the regular 20/80 amylose-/amylopectin mixture in a typical potato, Amflora has been genetically modified to contain only amylopectin.

Amflora provides a plausible reason for commercially cultivation of GM Crops in Europe. For improving the industrial application of potato, the amylose-less Amflora was genetically engineered to produce only amylopectin component in its starch.
