摘要: Abstract Plant genetic engineering via the nucleus is a mature technology that has been used very productively for research and commercial biotechnology. By contrast, ability to introduce foreign genes at specific locations on chloroplast's chromosome aquired relatively recently. Certain limitations of nuclear genome transformation methods might be overcome by site-specific introduction into plastid chromosomes. In addition, plastids, mitochondria other subcellular organelles provide more favorable environments than nuclear–cytoplasmic compartment certain biochemical reactions accumulating large amounts some gene enzyme products.
