Abstract

- Plastid engineering allows high-level transgene expression and improves containment.
- Chloroplast transgenes can be moved horizontally between species.
- Chimeric expression elements facilitate transgene expression in non-green plastids.
- Plastid transgenes can be stacked in synthetic operons.
- New tools enabled new applications in metabolic engineering and molecular farming.
