Zusammenfassung:The present invention is directed to promoters that have particular utility in driving root-specific expression of heterologous genes that impart increased agronomic, horticultural and/or pesticidal characteristics to a given transgenic plant. The present invention is also drawn to DNA molecules comprising the promoters of the invention and transformed plant tissues containing DNA molecules comprising a promoter of the invention operably linked to a heterologous gene or genes, and seeds thereof. La presente invención está dirigida a promotores que tienen una utilidad particular para impulsar la expresión específica de la raíz de genes heterólogos que imparten características agronómicas, hortícolas y/o pesticidas aumentadas a una planta transgénica dada. La presente invención también se refiere a moléculas de ADN que comprenden los promotores de la invención y tejidos vegetales transformados que contienen moléculas de ADN que comprenden un promotor de la invención unido operativamente a un gen o genes heterólogos, y semillas de los mismos.
