Abstract
The cDNA clones of two genes, DF9 and DF12, which show greatly enhance d expression during imbibition of seeds of Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga me nziesii) have been isolated by differential screening. The expression profiles of these genes during 35 days of moist treatment at both 4 de grees C and 20 degrees C are described. Sequence analysis reveals a hi gh degree of similarity between the DF9 cDNA and plant H1 histone gene s. DF12 shows similarity to the PRE4 gene from yeast that encodes a be ta-subunit of the 20S proteasome complex.
