✦ Synopsis

Transgenic plants can express a wide variety of foreign genes and offer the opportunity of large-scale protein production in agricultural systems. The recombinant protein can serve both ex situ and in situ purposes. Due to significant progress in plant molecular biology, many different plant species can now be transformed and are even capable of producing very complex proteins such as antibodies or vaccines. Furthermore, recombinant proteins can mediate resistance against microbial pathogens, such as fungi or viruses, or protect transgenic plants from insect pests.
