The present invention relates to expression cassettes comprising transcription regulating sequences with constitutive expression profiles in plants obtainable fromgenes At5g17920, At3g03780, At2g01100, At2g34770, At5g61560, At4g00830, At3g10220, At4g38520, At3g11110, At2g47170, Atlg64090, At5g60690, Atlg76350, At1g76580, Atlg31930, At5g18230, Atlg20970, or At4g35620. The expression cassettes according to the present invention may be employed for expression of a protein, or expression of an antisense RNA, sense or double-stranded RNA. Preferably, expression of the nucleic acid sequence confers to the plant an agronomically valuable trait. Vectors comprising such an expression cassette, and transgenic host cell or non-human organism comprising the expression cassette or the vector are also enclosed. Also enclosed is a method for identifying and/or isolating a sequence with constitutive transcription regulating activity.

The present invention relates to expression cassettes comprising transcription regulating sequences with constitutive expression profiles in plants obtainable fromgenes At5g17920, At3g03780, At2g01100, At2g34770, At5g61560, At4g00830, At3g10220, At4g38520, At3g11110, At2g47170, At1g64090, At5g60690, At1g76350, At1g76580, At1g31930, At5g18230, At1g20970, or At4g35620. The expression cassettes according to the present invention may be employed for expression of a protein, or expression of an antisense RNA, sense or double-stranded RNA. Preferably, expression of the nucleic acid sequence confers to the plant an agronomically valuable trait. Vectors comprising such an expression cassette, and transgenic host cell or non-human organism comprising the expression cassette or the vector are also enclosed. Also enclosed is a method for identifying and/or isolating a sequence with constitutive transcription regulating activity.

The expression cassettes according to the present invention may be employed for expression of a protein, or expression of an antisense RNA, sense or double-stranded RNA. Preferably, expression of the nucleic acid sequence confers to the plant an agronomically valuable trait. Vectors comprising such expression cassette, and transgenic host cell or non-human organism comprising the expression cassette or the vector is also enclosed. Also enclosed is a method for identifying and/or isolating a sequence with root-specific or root-preferential transcription regulating activity.

Expression cassettes for root-preferential expression in plants

The present invention relates to expression cassettes comprising transcription regulating sequences with vascular tissue-preferential or vascular tissue-specific expression profiles in plants obtainable fromgenes At4g00140, At5g45350, At2g39830, At1g68430, or At5g67280.

Expression cassettes for vascular tissue-preferential expression in plants

The invention relates to methods for the targeted transgenic expression of nucleic acid sequences in nonreproductive floral tissues of plants, and to transgenic expression cassettes and expression vectors which comprise promoters having an expression specificity for nonreproductive tissues of the flower. The invention further relates to organisms (preferably plants) transformed with these transgenic expression cassettes or expression vectors, to cultures, parts or propagation material derived therefrom, and to the use of the same for producing human and animal foods, seeds, pharmaceuticals or fine chemicals.
