Synthetic Rewiring of Plant CO2 Sequestration Galvanizes Plant Biomass Production

Synthetically designed alternative photorespiratory pathways in tobacco and rice plants have paved the way to enhanced plant biomass production. Likewise, some in vitro- and in vivo-tested carbon-concentrating cycles hold promise to increase plant biomass. We hypothesize a further increase in plant productivity if photorespiratory bypasses are integrated with carbonconcentrating cycles in plants.
