Abstract

The present invention is directed to the identification and isolation of two different promoter regions from the raspberry genome. The promoter regions are operably linked, in a native raspberry genome, to the coding region of a raspberry dru1 gene. Promoters of the invention are capable of regulating moderate level, constitutive expression of heterologous plant genes under their control. The invention is further directed to chimeric genes, cassette vectors, kits, transgenic plants, and methods employing such promoters.
