Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention is in the field of plant molecular biology and provides methods for production of high expressing seed-specific and/or seed-preferential promoters and the production of plants with enhanced seed-specific and/or seed-preferential expression of nucleic acids wherein nucleic acid expression enhancing nucleic acids (NEENAs) are functionally linked to said promoters and/or introduced into plants.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for production of a high expression seed-specific and/or seed-preferential expression construct, comprising functionally linking one or more nucleic acid expression enhancing nucleic acid (NEENA) molecule to a seed-specific and/or seed-preferential promoter and to a nucleic acid molecule to be expressed under the control of said seed-specific and/or seed-preferential promoter, wherein said NEENA is heterologous to said seed-specific and/or seed-prefe…
