Abstract

This invention discloses isolated DNA sequences encoding a glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, particularly DNA sequences isolated from Cuphea lanceolata. The invention also describes genomic clones from Cuphea lanceolata which contain the complete gene for glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase including promoter sequences. The DNA sequences and clones of the invention are useful for the production of transgenic plants.
