Abstract
The present invention provides polynucleotide molecules useful for expressing transgenes in plants, including novel chimeric promoters made by fusing the rice actin 1 promoter and selected CaMV 35S promoter enhancer domains. The present invention also provides expression constructs containing the polynucleotide molecules useful for expressing transgenes in plants. The present invention also provides transgenic plants and seeds containing the polynucleotide molecules useful for expressing transgenes in plants.
