Expression of a codon-optimized dsdA gene in tobacco plastids and rice nuclear confers D-serine tolerance

D-serine is toxic to plants. D-serine ammonia lyase, which is encoded by the dsdA gene, can attenuate this toxicity with high specificity. In the present study, we explored the function of codon-optimized dsdA with tobacco plastids and rice nuclear transformation system. It was shown that the dsdA g...
