MICROSPORE-SPECIFIC PROMOTER FROM TOBACCO

摘要

The present invention is related to isolated purified DNA sequences from the promoter region of a microspore-specific gene of tobacco. Said sequences can act as microspore-specific promoters and can play a role in the expression of genes in microspores. The invention also relates to chimeric genes suitable for transforming plants comprising the present microspore-specific promoter. Further, the invention relates to plants transformed with said chimeric genes.
