Abstract excerpt
In order to modify the early stages of pollen development in a transgenic context microspore-specific promoters are required. We tested two putatively microspore-specific promoters, the Bp4 promoter from rapeseed and the NTM19 promoter from tobacco. Expression of the gus and barnase reporter genes under the control of these two promoters was studied in transgenic tobacco. Contrary to expectations, the Bp4...
