Abstract

The invention relates to wound-stimulated DNA from Solanum tuberosum as well as parts thereof, their use for the development of gene products in higher plants using wounding or pathogen attack, DNA-transfer vectors containing these, and plants or plant portions containing these. The promoter of this DNA-sequence can be used for the expression of gene products in higher plants using wound and/or pathogen attack.
