ABSTRACT:
An isolated DNA molecule which comprises a DNA promoter sequence which directs root cortex specific transcription of a downstream heterologous DNA segment in a plant cell. A DNA construct which comprises an expression cassette comprising, in the 5' to 3' direction, a promoter of the present invention and a heterologous DNA segment positioned downstream from the promoter and operatively associated therewith. Transformed plants, such as tobacco plants, comprise transformed plant cells containing a heterologous DNA construct comprising an expression cassette as described above.
