The present invention relates to the provision of technical means such as nucleic acids which, after transcription or after expression in a plant, are suitable for mediating the property of a haploid inductor or for increasing the induction capability of a haploid inductor, as well as methods and uses for the production and identification of non-transgenic and transgenic plant haploid inductors, as well as the improvement of existing plant haploid inductors.

Haploid inducers

The invention relates to an isolated cis-regulatory element imparting pathogen inducibility or elicitor inducibility, which comprises a nucleic acid molecule, the nucleotide sequence of which corresponds to one of the core sequence motifs comprising a) vaaagtm, b) aaacca, c) scaaam, d) acrcg, e) sktgkact, f) mrtsack, g) ccaccaa, h) tcgtctcttc (SEQ ID NO: 35), i) wwkgwc or a core sequence motif complementary to a) to i).
