Chloroplast Genetic Engineering
Chloroplast genetic engineering involves modifying the chloroplast genome to introduce new traits in plants, such as enhanced photosynthesis, pest resistance, or production of valuable compounds. Since chloroplasts contain their own DNA, which is inherited maternally, genetic modifications in chloroplasts do not transfer through pollen, reducing environmental risk. Chloroplast engineering has applications in creating biofortified crops and producing pharmaceuticals and biodegradable plastics within plant tissues. Additionally, because chloroplasts can produce proteins in large quantities, they are ideal for developing cost-effective and sustainable plant-based biomanufacturing systems, contributing to advances in both agriculture and biotechnology.
