additional information	construction of transgenic Ipomoea batatas plants expressing the FSPD1 gene, the plants show twice as high spermidine content as the wild type counterpart in both leaves and storage roots, one of the most characteristic features of the transgenic plants is the increase in the number of storage roots formed under both non-stress and stressful environments, salt and drought stresses suppress storage root growth, but the transgenic plants are less affected producing significantly larger mass of storage roots and starches than wild-type plants under either stress, and also show increased tolerance to chilling- and heat-mediated damage to photosynthesis, phenotype, detailed overview	Cucurbita ficifolia
