Overview

abstract

• In this chapter, a general outlook on the plant transformation approaches is provided with emphasis in applications related to molecular farming. The rationale of nuclear, chloroplast, and transient expressions mediated by viral vectors are reviewed. Implications of such technologies in terms of protein yields, posttranslational modifications, scalability, and production time scale are critically analyzed. New trends in plant genetic engineering are also identified and perspectives on how these technologies might influence the molecular farming field are provided. © Springer International Publishing AG.
