agriculture | expression of CodA in potato plastid genome results in much higher mRNA level of CodA in leaves than in tubers. Glycine betaine accumulates in similar levels in both leaves and tubers of CodA-transplastomic potato plants. The glycine betaine content is moderately increased in transgenic plants, and compartmentation of glycine betaine in plastids confers considerably higher tolerance to drought stress compared to wild-type plants, with higher levels of relative water content and chlorophyll content under drought stress. Transplastomic plants present a significantly higher photosynthetic performance as well as antioxidant enzyme activities during drought stress | Arthrobacter globiformis |
