ABSTRACT:
A genetic construct comprising an SAG12 promoter sequence operably connected to a protein-coding DNA sequence not natively connected to the promoter sequence is disclosed. Preferably, this SAG12 promoter sequence is the first 602 bp of SEQ ID NO:2 and the protein-coding sequence encodes isopentenyl transferase.
