A method is provided for transforming maize plants to express DNA sequences of interest from plant cell plastids. The method allows the transformation of maize plant tissue with heterologous DNA constructs by microprojectile bombardment of green light grown cultures and dark grown embryogenic cultures. The invention also provides for maize cells in which the plastids contain heterologous DNA constructs.
