Constitutive expression of nitrate reductase allows normal growth and development of Nicotiana plumbaginifolia plants.

The EMBO journal - 1 May 1991

Vincentz M, Caboche M

Abstract excerpt

A nitrate reductase (NR) deficient mutant of Nicotiana plumbaginifolia totally impaired in the production of NR transcript and protein was restored for NR activity by transformation with a chimaeric NR gene. This gene was composed of a full-length tobacco NR cDNA fused to the CaMV 35S promoter and to termination signals from the tobacco NR gene. The transgenic plants we obtained were viable and fertile and...
