Abstract

The present invention relates to promoters which permit a caryopsis-specific expression or suppression of genes in genetically modified plants, to methods for the tissue-specific gene expression or gene suppression in plants, expression cassettes, recombinant vectors and host cells containing such promoters, to transgenic plant cells and plants transformed with said promoters, and to methods for generating such plant cells and plants.
