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 gene...
