N. tabacum lines that lacked functional Rubisco were transformed with plasmids encoding a chloroplast transit peptide in frame with C. vinosum rbcL and stable transformants generated. However, the transgene was transcribed at a low level and no Rubisco activity or C. vinosum large subunits were detectable in any line.
