Abstract From the Canadian patent

Fruit-specific regulatory regions are identified employing cDNA screening. The resulting fruitspecific regulatory regions are manipulated for use with foreign sequences for introduction-into plant cells to provide transformed plants having fruit with a modified phenotypic property. The invention is exemplified with a tomato fruit-specific promoter which is active throughout the stages of fruit ripening.
