Abstract
A method for determining gene expression in transgenic plants is disclosed. This method includes providing expression vectors having the PAP1 or PAP2 gene linked to an expressed gene of interest. If the expression vector is activated, the PAP1 or PAP2 genes confer a purple pigmentation to the transgenic plant. Thus, plants that have been successfully transformed are easily identifiable by visual inspection.
