ABSTRACT:
The invention discloses novel promoter sequences capable of expressing genes in plant cells. The promoters include engineered versions of the maize ubiquitin promoter to increase expression levels beyond those observed with the native ubiquitin promoter and alter the tissue preference. Expression constructs, vectors, transgenic plants and methods are also disclosed.
