Abstract
The pattern of expression of two genes coding for proline-rich protein s, zmHyPRP and zmHRGP, in Zea mays is modified when the embryogenesis programme is altered by placing the embryos in conditions which promot e either precocious germination or callogenesis. zmHyPRP gene expressi on is rapidly arrested when the embryogenesis programme is altered. zm HRGP mRNA is highly induced in scutellum within a few hours of calloge nesis or precocious germination.
