ROOT PREFERRED PROMOTERS DERIVED FROM RICE AND METHODS OF USE

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/004668

Kind Code:

A9

Abstract:

Highly active root-preferred expression cassettes are desirable tools for improving drought tolerance in maize, rice, and other monocots. Two rice genes with strong root-preferred expression profiles were identified by querying data from rice expression profiling experiments. The gene structure and regulatory sequence for each were used to design and build two novel root-preferred expression cassettes.
