Control of gene expression in plants

Abstract

The invention provides the isolated promoter polynucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 from perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), and fragments and variants thereof. The invention also provides constructs, plant cells and plant genetically modified to contain the promoter polynucleotide. The invention also provides methods for producing plants with altered gene expression and traits via genetic transformation of plants with the promoter polynucleotide.
