<p>The invention relates to promoter sequences obtained from flax and useful for modification of flax and other plants for expression of endogenous or foreign genes. The promoters are the SEQ ID NO. 3 and SEQ ID NO. 4 and are obtained from newly illucidated structures of two SAD genes in flax, namely SEQ ID NO. 1 and SEQ ID NO. 2. The promoters have been inserted into cloning plasmids and deposited at the American Type Culture Collection as plasmids pCDC220 and pCDC214 under deposit numbers ATCC 98192 and ATCC 98193, respectively. The promoters may be used in conjunction with genes to modify characteristics of flax and other plants. The invention includes the SAD genes themselves and DNA sequences substantially homologous to SEQ ID NO. 1, SEQ ID NO. 2, SEQ ID NO. 3, and SEQ ID NO. 4, as well as significant parts thereof.</p> |
