Abstract
The present invention is directed to isolated promoter sequences from seed-specific genes, such as KNAT411. When operably linked to either the coding sequence of a heterologous gene or a sequence complementary to a native plant gene, the subject promoters direct expression of the coding sequence or complementary sequence in a plant seed, including the early embryo. The promoter sequences are useful in expression cassettes and expression vectors for the transformation of plants. Also provided are methods of directing seed-specific expression of a gene or sequence complementary to a native plant gene by introducing into a plant cell an isolated nucleic acid comprising a subject promoter operably linked to said gene or complementary sequence. Methods for activating a site-specific recombination system in the early embryo of a seed by transforming a plant with an expression cassette comprising a subject promoter operably linked to a recombinase gene are also provided.
