Biotechnology with Plants - an Overview

  • Chapter
Book cover Progress in Botany

Part of the book series: Progress in Botany/Fortschritte der Botanik ((BOTANY,volume 58))

Abstract

The ability to introduce foreign DNA into higher plants was a tremendous success in plant molecular biology and has been shown to be an important prerequisite to a new area of research, i.e., plant biotechnology. Traditionally, biotechnology was mostly limited to unicellular organisms, such as bacteria, yeast, and filamentous fungi. However, biotechnology with plants has many potential applications (recent reviews: Conrad and Fiedler 1994; Vasil 1994; Krautwig and Lörz 1995; Poirier et al. 1995; Töpfer et al. 1995; Willmitzer 1995), including increased resistance to pathogens, increased yield of crops, isolation of drugs, or even the production of antibodies.
