ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure is directed to isolated nucleic acid fragments comprising a root-preferred maize NAS2 promoter, a functional fragment thereof, and end-uses and methods utilizing said fragments. Functional fragment NAS2 promoters include those containing the Root Motif 1, the CAAT box, and the TATA box; the Pyrimidine Box, the Pyrimidine-rich Stretch, the QAR, the Root Motif 1, the CAAT box, and the TATA box; and the Pyrimidine Box, the Pyrimidine-rich Stretch, the QAR, the Root Motif 1, and the CAAT box.
