ABSTRACT:
Three similar gene sequences are provided, the sequences being shown in the drawings, which are recovered from male flower parts of maize, specifically anther tissue. When one or more of these sequences are included in a gene construct, expression of an encoded protein is restricted to male parts of the plant. The sequences have utility in any application where expression in male flower parts is indicated, a specific application is in the control of expression of a disrupter protein which imparts male sterility when incorporated in a plant genome.
