The invention provides DNA molecules and constructs, including their nucleotide sequences, useful for modulating gene expression in plants and plant cells. Transgenic plants, plant cells, plant parts, seeds, and commodity products comprising the DNA molecules operably linked to heterologous transcribable polynucleotides are also provided, as are methods of their use.

Plant regulatory elements and uses thereof

Systems and methods for determining free energy parameters for predicting binding affinities of nucleotide sequences are provided. The disclosed subject matter obtains phenotypic measurements for nucleotide sequences (for example a DNA sequence or RNA sequence), links the phenotypic measurements to the nucleotide sequences to obtain linked pairs of phenotypic measurements and nucleotide sequences, estimates a relationship between the phenotypic measurements and the nucleotide sequences using the linked pairs, and obtains sequence specific affinity parameters from the estimated relationship.
