  • USE OF THE RD29 PROMOTER OR FRAGMENTS THEREOF FOR STRESS-INDUCIBLE EXPRESSION OF TRANSGENES IN COTTON
    Publication number: 20170260539
    Abstract: In one aspect, the present application discloses a chimeric gene comprising (a) a first nucleic acid sequence comprising at least 400 consecutive nucleotides of SEQ ID NO: 1 or SEQ ID NO: 2 or a nucleic acid sequence having at least 80% sequence identity thereto any of which confers stress inducibility on said chimeric gene; (b) a second nucleic acid sequence encoding an expression product of interest, which is involved in the response of a cotton plant to stress; and optionally (c) a transcription termination and polyadenylation sequence.
    Type: Application

  • GUARD CELL-SPECIFIC EXPRESSION OF TRANSGENES IN COTTON
    Publication number: 20140215655
    Abstract: In one aspect, the application discloses a cotton plant cell comprising (a) a chimeric gene comprising a first nucleic acid sequence comprising at least 700 consecutive nucleotides of SEQ ID NO: 1 or a nucleic acid sequence having at least 80% sequence identity thereto any of which has stomata-preferential promoter activity; (b) a second nucleic acid sequence encoding an expression product of interest; and (c) a transcription termination and polyadenylation sequence. In addition, the present application discloses a cotton plant, a method of expressing a transgene in cotton under stress conditions, a method of producing a cotton plant, a method of detecting the expression of a transgene under stress conditions and a method for modulating the resistance of a cotton plant to stress as characterized in the claims.
