<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide constructs and methods for the regulation of reproductive development, particularly for the genetic ablation of reproductive tissues in angiosperm and gymnosperm species. <P>SOLUTION: Reproductive-preferred promoters, regulatory elements, and cytotoxic nucleotide sequences are disclosed for the regulation of reproductive development, particularly for the genetic ablation of reproductive tissues in angiosperm and gymnosperm species. There is also provided an isolated polynucleotide that confers reproductive-preferred gene expression or is selected from the group consisting of functional variants thereof. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
