| Total number of employes: | 30 | |
| Main area of activity of the structural unit: | Physiological, biochemical and
molecular-genetic bases of production processes of plants. The principles determined
productivity and high yield in ideal type wheat were developed; positive
correlation between photisynthesis and photorespiration was shown for
the first time. Structural and functional organization of carbonic anhydrase
was studied in detail, the crystals were obtained and molecular model of the
quaternary structure of carbonic anhydrase was suggested. The genetic code
of phosphoglucolate phosphatase, a key en zyme of photorespiration, was
determined for the first time.

| Main scientific achievements of the structural unit: | The genome library of chloroplast DNA was created and gene transfer was made by the vector systems and regenerates were obtained. Induced morphogenesis in wheat cell culture was made and plants for initial material in selection were reconstructed. Full nucleotide sequences of plastid genes in rice, tobacco and maize were analized by the computer methods and a great number of nuclear origion regulation sites were revealed on 5' - promotor regions of these genes.
