This disclosure concerns compositions and methods for promoting transcription of a nucleotide sequence in a plant or plant cell, employing a promoter from aKN1 gene. Some embodiments relate to a promoter from aKN1 gene that functions in plants to promote transcription of operably linked nucleotide sequences.

Plant promoter for transgene expression

This disclosure concerns compositions and methods for promoting transcription and translation of a nucleotide sequence in a plant or plant cell, employing a promoter and/or a 3'UTR fromZrp2 gene. Some embodiments relate to a promoter from aZrp2 gene that is operably linked to aUbiquitin 1 intron and functions in plants to promote transcription of operably linked nucleotide sequences. Other embodiments relate to a 3&#x2032; UTR from aZrp2 gene that functions in plants to terminate transcription of operably linked nucleotide sequences.

Plant promotor and 3' UTR for transgene expression

This invention encompasses the identification and isolation of genes that confer disease control properties in plants, as well as plants comprising such genes. These genes are derived from the following sources:(var.IR7),and(Rifai 1295-22). The control conferred is against the one or more of the following phytopathogens:-, and. Further, this invention encompasses other homologous and heterologous sequences with a high degree of functional similarity.

Nucleic acid compositions conferring disease resistance

The present invention relates to nucleic acid and amino acid sequences that confer herbicide resistance in plants, as well as herbicide resistance in plants, plant seeds, plant tissues and plant cells comprising such sequences. In a preferred embodiment, the sequences of the present invention confer a tolerant phenotype in plants in response to a chronic and/or acute inhibitin dose of auxinic herbicides. The present invention also provides homologous sequences with a high degree of functional similarity.

Nucleic acid compositions conferring herbicide resistance

The subject invention relates to high-throughput methods of screening DNA for mutations. These methods offer various unexpected advantages over current methods. In a preferred embodiment, the subject invention includes pooling DNA samples from many plants that were subjected to mutagenesis. Methods of the subject invention include highly sensitive means for detecting individual mutants, preferably deletions, in large pools or collections of DNA samples.

High-throughput methods of screening DNA for deletions and other mutations

This invention encompasses the identification and isolation of genes that confer disease control properties in plants, as well as plants comprising such genes. These genes are derived from the following sources:(var. Indica IR7), Papaver rhoeas,and(Rifai 1295-22). The control conferred is against the one or more of the following phytopathogens:, Cercospora zeae-maydis,, and. Further, this invention encompasses other homologous and heterologous sequences with a high degree of functional similarity.
