CA 2492038

Transgenic plants are created having incorporated into them a luciferase enzyme gene and a corresponding luciferin substrate gene. These genes are regulated such that for a certain amount of time after dark, these genes are expressed resulting in bioluminescence. Different luciferin/luciferase combinations may be utilized for these transgenic plants, depending on the desired wavelength and the plant species transfected.

La présente invention concerne des plantes transgéniques qui sont créées avec un gène de luciférase incorporé dans ces dernières et un gène du substrat luciférine correspondant. Ces gènes sont régulés de telle sorte que, pendant une certain temps après la tombée de la nuit, ces gènes soient exprimés et produisent de la bioluminescence. Différentes combinaisons luciférine/luciférase peuvent être utilisées pour ces plantes transgéniques, en fonction de la longueur d'onde désirée et de l'espèce de plante transfectée.
