The present invention relates to methods and means for producing nitrogenase polypeptides in the mitochondria of plant cells. The present disclosure provides plant cells that express one or more MTP-Nif fusions and/or translational NifD-NifK and NifE-NifN fusions. The present disclosure also provide...
