Abstract

The present invention relates to transgenic plants with altered photorespiration and improved CO2 fixation as well as a method of producing said transgenic plants. Particularly, the transgenic plants show an improved growth rate, productivity and energy conversion efficiency. This method can be successfully applied to many agricultural crop plants with nutritional and medicinal uses.
