A stabilized gene for transforming a host plant cell, said gene comprising a gene exogenous to the plant cell, and at least one stabilizing DNA segment in a 3'- or 5'-flanking region of said gene. The gene may comprise a stabilizing DNA segment in a 3'-flanking region and a second stabilizing DNA segment in a 5'-flanking region of said gene. The invention further includes vectors and transgenic plants comprising the said stabilized gene. |
