| abstract |
The present technology provides terpene synthase (TPS) promoters and TPS promoter consensus sequences from Cannabis, nucleotide sequences of the TPS promoters and consensus sequences, and uses of the promoters and consensus sequences for modulating the production of terpenes and other compounds in organisms. The present technology also provides chimeric genes, vectors, and transgenic cells and organisms, including plant cells and plants, comprising the TPS promoters and consensus sequences. Also provided are methods for expressing nucleic acid sequences in cells and organisms using the TPS promoters and consensus sequences. |
