First, it improves gene containment due to the maternal inheritance of plastids, which incredibity reduces transgene transmission as compared with pollens. Second, the gene expression position effect is climinated because of the site-specific homologous recombination integration mechanism in the chloroplast genome UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
