DNA having promoter activity for expressing an exogenous gene specifically in vegetative growth tissue (particularly, stems and/or leaves) is provided. The DNA is a rice OsGA3ox2 gene promoter which has a sequence indicated by SEQ ID NO. 1, or a portion of said sequence whose promoter activity is equivalent to that of said sequence indicated by SEQ ID No . 1. An expression vector containing an exogenous gene expressibly linked to the promoter is also provided. A plant cell transformed with the expression vector, a plant regenerated from the plant cell, a progeny of the plant, a propagator of the plant, and a seed obtained from the progeny are also provided. A method for introducing an exogenous gene into plants using an expression vector is also provided. <IMAGE>
