✦ Synopsis
A genomic clone of an acyl carrier protein gene (Bcg4-4) which is highly expressed in developing embryos of Brassica rapa was isolated and sequenced. The promoter and transcription terminator regions of Bcg4-4 were used to express a fl-glucuronidase reporter gene in transgenic rapeseed. Deletion of repeated domains in the promoter region did not lower fl-glucuronidase expression in seeds.
