β¦ Synopsis
A cDNA clone (pcM 12) of the chalcone synthase (CHS) ofMatthiola incana R. Br. (Brassicaceae) was isolated from a cDNA library, sequenced and analysed. It comprises the complete coding sequence for the CHS and 5' and 3' untranslated regions. The deduced amino acid sequence shows that the Matthiola incana CHS consists of 394 amino acid residues. Comparison with CHS amino acid sequences of other plants indicates more than 8 2 ~ homology.

Recently, a novel type of calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) that requires neither calmodulin nor phospholipids for activation, has been described in plants. We have isolated a cDNA clone for carrot CDPK by probing a library of somatic embryo cDNAs with oligonucleotides corresponding to highly
