    Abstract: Plants are provided with increased ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) regeneration capacity during the Calvin cycle through increased expression of sedoheptulose 1,7 bisphosphatase, in combination with reduced photo-respiratory losses through expression of glycolate catabolizing enzymes. Such plants have a greater growth rate and/or improved biomass and/or increased carbon fixation compared to untreated plants, or plants comprising only one of the features above.
