Abstract
The present invention is drawn to an isolated purified DNA sequence from the promoter region of a microspore-specific gene of tobacco. The microspore-specific promoter can play a role in the expression of genes in microspores. The invention also is drawn to chimeric genes suitable for transforming plants comprising the microspore-specific promoter. Further, the invention is also drawn to plants transformed with the chimeric genes.
