Abstract
It is intended to provide a promoter responding specifically to germ infection (i.e. germ-responsive promoter). Namely, a germ-responsive promoter containing DNA comprising the PVS3 promoter region (SEQ ID NO:1) of potato plant. A region (SEQ ID NO:23) being important in the promoter activity.
Claims22
A pathogen-responsive promoter, comprising:
- (a) a DNA comprising nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:1;

- or
- (c) a DNA hybridizing to the DNA of (a) or (b) under a stringent condition and functioning as pathogen-responsive promoter in plant cell.
A pathogen-responsive promoter, comprising:
- (A) a DNA comprising nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:2;
- (B) a DNA comprising nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:2 with replacement, deletion, insertion or addition of one or more nucleotide(s) and functioning as pathogen-responsive promoter in plant cell;
- or
- (C) a DNA hybridizing to the DNA of (A) or (B) under a stringent condition and functioning as pathogen-responsive promoter in plant cell.
A pathogen-responsive promoter, comprising:
- (1) a DNA comprising a continuous portion of nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:1, and functioning as pathogen-responsive promoter in plant cell;
- (2) a DNA according to (1) with replacement, deletion, insertion or addition of one or more nucleotide(s) and functioning as pathogen-responsive promoter in plant cell;
- or
- (3) a DNA hybridizing to the DNA of (1) or (2) under a stringent condition and functioning as pathogen-responsive promoter in plant cell.
A pathogen-responsive promoter, comprising:

- or
- (iii) a DNA hybridizing to the DNA of (i) or (ii) under a stringent condition and functioning as pathogen-responsive promoter in plant cell.
A pathogen-responsive promoter functioning as pathogen-responsive promoter in plant cell and comprising:
- (I) a DNA comprising nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:23;
- (ii) a DNA comprising nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:23 with replacement, deletion, insertion or addition of one or more nucleotide(s);
- or
- (iii) a DNA hybridizing to the DNA of (i) or (ii) under a stringent condition.
