  • Method for stably transforming plastids of multicellular plants
    Patent number: 5451513
    Abstract: This invention provides methods for obtaining a plant cell of a multicellular plant, the plastids of which cell have been stably transformed by a foreign DNA of interest. These methods employ selectable markers some of which are nonlethal, some of which are designed to insert into the plastid genome and some of which are designed to be expressible only from the plastid genome and not from the nuclear genome. This invention also provides cells and multicellular plants the plastids of which have been stably transformed by a foreign DNA of interest.
