PROCESS FOR REDUCING SEED STORAGE PROTEINS AND PROCESS FOR TRANSFORMING PLANTS.

摘要

A process for reducing seed storage proteins by the genetic engineering technique, which comprises introducing into a plant a gene serving as a template for an mRNA of a seed storage protein and transferring the gene in the seed to thereby inhibit the translation of the mRNA of the protein. A process for transforming plants with a vector containing a glutelin promoter and a foreign gene.
