Abstract:Gametophyte-specific promoters drive the expression of genes in male and/or female gametophytes. These have applications in breeding experiments, gene function identification, developmental biology-related studies, and off-lately in genome editing also. ThePlant Intracellular Ras-group Leucine-Rich-Repeat6 (PIRL6) gene is known to be necessary for male and female gametogenesis. Using theGUS-based deletion analysis, we have identified thePIRL6promoter length that is essential for exclusive expression in the mal… Show more
