Abstract: A pair of specific primers were designed according to the 5′ upstream regulatory sequence of rice gene OsESG, anda 1.4 kb fragement named OsESP1was amplified using rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Zhonghua 11) genomic DNA as template by PCR. OsESP1 was further fused with GUS reporter gene and transformed into rice callus through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. GUS activities in various tissues of transformed plants were examined and the GUS activity was detected only in rice embryo, indicating theOsESP1 is an embryo-specific promoter.

Key words: Rice, Embryo-specific promoter, Expression patern analysis, GUS reporter gene
