ABSTRACT:
This invention provides for the secretion of heterologous protein in plant systems. In particular, this invention provides for the production of heterologous proteins in plant cultu1res and seeds. Where seeds are the source of the protein, the heterologous genes are expressed during germination and isolated from a malt.
