Abstract

The present invention provides novel regulatory elements for use in plants. The present invention also provides DNA constructs containing these novel regulatory elements; transgenic cells, plants, and seeds containing these novel regulatory elements; and methods for preparing and using the same.

First claim

We claim:

1. A DNA molecule comprising a regulatory element having a DNA sequence selected from the group consisting of: SEQ ID NOs: 1 and 2,
wherein said regulatory element is operably linked to a heterologous transcribable polynucleotide molecule.

2. The DNA molecule of claim 1 , wherein the transcribable polynucleotide molecule is a gene of agronomic interest.

3. The DNA molecule of claim 1 , wherein the transcribable polynucleotide molecule is a gene capable of providing herbicide resistance in plants.

4. The DNA molecule of claim 1 , wherein the transcribable polynucleotide molecule is a gene capable of providing plant pest control in plants.

5. A transgenic plant cell stably transformed with the DNA molecule of claim 1 .

6. The transgenic plant cell of claim 5 , wherein said transgenic plant cell is a monocotyledonous plant cell.

7. A transgenic plant stably transformed with the DNA molecule of claim 1 .

8. A plant part of the transgenic plant of claim 7 , wherein the plant part comprises the DNA molecule.

9. A seed of the transgenic plant of claim 7 , wherein the seed comprises the DNA molecule.
