Abstract
The present invention relates to new transcriptional promoters that are functional during meiosis. It thus provides new tools, methods and compositions for the expression of proteins during meiosis in a eukaryotic cell, and more particularly in a plant cell.
Claims16
1-16. (canceled)
An isolated nucleic acid having a functional transcriptional promoter activity during meiosis and comprising a nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO:
- 1 and functional variants thereof, said functional variants comprising:
- a sequence having at least 70% identity with the sequence SEQ ID NO:
- 1;
- a fragment of the sequence SEQ ID NO:
- 1 of at least 50 consecutive nucleotides, or
- a sequence capable of hybridizing under conditions of low, moderate or high stringency with the sequence SEQ ID NO:
- 1 or its complementary strand.
