The following points highlight the top five methods of chloroplast transformation in higher plants. The methods are: 1. Vectors for Plastid Transformation 2. Engineering for High-Level Protein Production 3. Biolystic Transfer 4. EG Mediated Transformation 5. Galistan Expansion Femtosyringe Method. Method # 1. Vectors for Plastid Transformation: Vectors used for plastid transformation utilize left (LTR) and right (RTR) targeting regions [...]

In this article we will discuss about the definition of terminator technology. Terminator technology has attracted strong public attention when patent (US patent No. 5,723,765) was issued to Delta and Pine land co. (Mississippi, USA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). This new technology designed to preclude unauthorised seed saving by farmers. In other words, terminator genes prevent crops [...]
