Abstract

The invention provides isolated plant gene promoters and regulatory elements that are root specific and/or induced by plant parasitic nematodes. The promoters of the invention are useful for controlling expression of nucleic acids of interest in plant roots and are particularly useful for controlling transcription of nucleic acids encoding agents that disrupt formation or maintenance of parasitic nematode feeding sites in plants.
