Abstract
The regulatory activity of a 826 bp DNA fragment located upstream of t he pTiBo542 TL-DNA gene 6b coding region was analysed in transgenic to bacco, using beta-glucuronidase (gus) as a reporter gene. The region w as shown to drive organ-specific, wound- and auxin-inducible expressio n of the reporter, the effect being dependent on the type and concentr ation of auxin.
