    Abstract: A genetic engineering process of fibrous plant comprising bast fibres. The process comprises the steps of (a) identification of the bast fibre promoter and (b) amplification of the bast fibre promoter. The process is remarkable in that it further comprises the step (c) of preparing a gene cassette by fusing the bast fibre promoter with at least one gene coding for a surface-active protein. Additionally, the fibrous plant obtained by the genetic engineering process. The fibrous plant is remarkable in that it comprises surface-active proteins.
