Use of cyanobacterial fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase to improve growth of plants

摘要

Using the technique of recombinant DNA, the photosynthetic ability, in other words the primary metabolism of a higher plant, was improved to enhance the growth. This improvement results in increase of harvest potentiality and earlier harvest of crops. A cyanobacterial fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase/sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphatase is phenotypically expressed in chloroplasts of a higher plant to improve the productivity of the higher plant. <IMAGE>
