Abstract
The invention provides recombinant DNA molecules and constructs, and their nucleotide sequences, useful for modulating gene expression in plants. The invention also provides transgenic plants, plant cells, plant parts, and seeds comprising a recombinant DNA molecule comprising a DNA molecule operably linked to a heterologous transcribable DNA molecule, as well as methods of their use.
Claims21
A recombinant DNA molecule comprising a DNA sequence selected from the group consisting of:
- a) a DNA sequence with at least 85 percent sequence identity to any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-20;
- b) a DNA sequence comprising any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-20;
- and
- c) a fragment of any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-20, wherein the fragment has gene-regulatory activity;
- wherein said sequence is operably linked to a heterologous transcribable polynucleotide molecule.
A transgenic plant cell comprising a recombinant DNA molecule comprising a DNA sequence selected from the group consisting of:
- a) a DNA sequence with at least 85 percent sequence identity to any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-20;
- b) a DNA sequence comprising any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-20;
- and
- c) a fragment of any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-20, wherein the fragment has gene-regulatory activity;
- wherein said sequence is operably linked to a heterologous transcribable polynucleotide molecule.
A transgenic plant, or part thereof, comprising a recombinant DNA molecule comprising a DNA sequence selected from the group consisting of:
- a) a DNA sequence with at least 85 percent sequence identity to any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-20;
- b) a DNA sequence comprising any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-20;
- and
- c) a fragment of any of SEQ ID NOs:
- 1-20, wherein the fragment has gene-regulatory activity;
- wherein said sequence is operably linked to a heterologous transcribable polynucleotide molecule.
A codon redesigned E. coli β-glucuronidase (GUS) coding sequence, wherein said codon redesigned GUS coding sequence demonstrates higher expression in a transgenic plant than the native E. coli GUS coding sequence.
