| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Rubisco is a key enzyme for photosynthesis. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a key enzyme for supply of the substrate for Rubisco. In the present study, Rubisco and GAPDH were simulutaneously overproduced in rice to improve the photosynthetic capacity. However, improvement in the photosynthetic rates were not observed. Instead, the photosynthetic capacity at elevated CO2 conditions was slightly improved in rice plants with overproduction of GAPDH alone, although such improvement in photosynthesis was not sufficient for improvement in plant growth.
