Plastid transformation in higher plants
Article Abstract:
An overview of the technology for the genetic modification of the plastid genome is provided. Plastids of higher plants are semi-autonomous organelles with a small, highly polyploid genome and their own transcription-translation machinery.

Metabolic channeling in plants
Article Abstract:
Metabolic channeling offers unique opportunities for enhancing and regulating cellular biochemsitry. The cysteine synthase complex, the Calvin cycle, cyanogenic glucoside biosynthesis, and the phenylpropanoid pathway are reviewed.
