Abstract: The present invention relates to plant biotechnology and specifically to a method for genetically transforming Camelina sativa with Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system. It comprises Camelina sativa for producing homologous and heterologous recombinant products including oil and protein products and assessing and screening the efficacy of plant transformation. Also disclosed are transgenic Camelina sativa plants, seeds as well as cells, cell-lines and tissue of Camelina sativa.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a process based on a source-sink principle, for producing products of interest from crushed or uncrushed germinating dicotyledonous seeds comprising an expression system, which is induced or can be induced during germination. The product is either a seed derived composition comprising one or more gene products. Alternatively, it is a product of interest obtained by placing the composition in contact with a substrate, containing a substance capable of being transformed by the seed derived composition as such, dried or in down-stream processed form.
