Abstract
The present invention relates to a stress inducible promoter. Particularly, it relates to an Ipomoea batatas peroxidase isozyme gene promoter which is strongly induced under environmental stresses in cultured cells and whole plants. The promoter of the present invention can effectively be used to develop stress-tolerant plants which have resistance to environmental stresses, and to develop transformed organisms which can produce useful materials on a large scale.
Claims5
