Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9822600A1] A chimeric double gene construct comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding an enzyme having aspartate kinase (AK) activity and a nucleic acid sequence encoding an enzyme having dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHPS) activity is provided. This construct is capable of differential expression of the two genes resulting in an increased level of both lysine and threonine more than 5-fold the wild type level of each amino acid in a plant or parts thereof.
