Cytokinin Oxidase Promoter From Maize

View page
US Patent:
7741534, Jun 22, 2010
Filed:
Mar 20, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/051893
Inventors:
Xiaomu Niu - Johnston IA, US
Haiyin Wang - Johnston IA, US
Dwight T Tomes - Van Meter IA, US
Sabine Hantke - Cologne, DE
Norbert Brugiere - Johnston IA, US
Assignee:
Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. - Johnston IA
International Classification:
C12N 15/82
US Classification:
800285, 800287, 536 241, 435468
Abstract:
The present invention provides compositions and methods for regulating expression of nucleotide sequences in a plant. Compositions may comprise a novel nucleic acid sequence for a promoter with tissue specificity and/or cytokinin inducibility. A method for expressing a heterologous nucleotide sequence in a plant using the promoter sequence is also provided. The method comprises transforming a plant cell to contain a heterologous nucleotide sequence operably linked to the promoter of the present invention and regenerating a stably transformed plant from the transformed plant cell. Other methods provide for downregulation of cytokinin oxidase in a plant.
