Abstract
The present invention relates to novel plant expression constructs. More specifically the present invention provides DNA constructs comprising 5′ regulatory sequences for modulating the expression of operably linked genes in plants.
Claims15
Transgenic plant seed comprising one or more DNA expression constructs, said constructs comprising a hybrid promoter DNA sequence comprising the 34S FMV promoter operably linked to an Arabidopsis EF1α promoter;
- a structural DNA sequence encoding a glyphosate tolerance protein;
- and a 3′ non-translated region that functions in plants to cause the addition of polyadenylated nucleotides to the 3′ end of the RNA sequence;
- wherein the structural DNA sequence is operably linked to the hybrid promoter and the 3′ non-translated region.
