Abstract
Novel nucleic acid sequences, constructs employing such sequences, transgenic plant cells and plants are provided employing sequences associated with tomato heat shock protein 80.5 ('hsp80'). Nucleic acid sequences obtainable from the use of hsp80 as a probe in other plant species are also disclosed. In particular, the 5' noncoding region of tomato hsp80 or other plant promoters obtainable therefrom, especially to provide differentially specific initiation of transcription of a desired nucleic acid sequence of interest. Also provided are putative sequences believed to represent Scaffold Attachment Regions (SAR) of the plant hsp80 gene.
