Abstract OneNicotiana glauca line with distinctly enhanced levels of lysine decarboxylase (LDC) activity and of cadaverine was detected among 54 hairy root cultures of different tobacco species, transformed with the binary vector pLX222 carrying a bacteial lysine decarboxylase gene directed by the 35S-promoter of CaMV. Anabasine levels of this line were nearly doubled in comparison to control lines transformed with the gus-gene instead of the ldc-gene.
