  • The Method for Enhancement of Photosynthesis and Biomass of Plant by Plastid Transformation of Malate Dehydrogenase
    Publication number: 20100043096
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for enhancement of photosynthesis and biomass of a plant by plastid transformation with MDH gene, more precisely a method for enhancement of photosynthesis and biomass of C3 plant by plastid transformation system with MDH gene. The MDH plastid transgenic plant prepared by the method of the present invention exhibits not only increased photosynthesis efficiency but also increased growth rate, leaf area, stem diameter and biomass of the plant, compared with the control plant. Therefore, the plastid transformed C3 plant prepared by C4 type gene introduction can be effectively used for enhancing photosynthesis and biomass of the plant.
