Abstract
Gene-targeting efficiency in the land plant <i>Physcomitrella patens</i> (Bryophyta) can only be compared with that observed in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>. Sequencing programs and microbiological molecular genetic approaches are now being developed to unravel the precise function of plant genes. <i>Physcomitrella patens</i>, as the new ‘green yeast’, might well become a major tool for functional genomic studies of multicellular eukaryotes.
