New pathogen-induced promoters are provided, particularly nematode-induced promoters, which are characterized by their selective induction of expression in the vicinity of the pathogen infection sites, such as the fixed feeding cells induced by infection of the plant by nematodes. Further provided are chimeric genes comprising these promoters as regulatory elements, as well as transgenic plants, comprising those chimeric genes, which are less susceptible to pathogen infections.

Os promoters pathogen-induzidos novos são fornecidos, particularmente os promoters nematode-induzidos, que são caracterizados por sua indução seletiva da expressão na vizinhança dos locais da infecção do pathogen, tais como as pilhas de alimentação fixas induzidas pela infecção da planta por nematodes. São fornecidos mais mais os genes chimeric que compreendem estes promoters como elementos regulatory, as.well.as as plantas transgenic, compreendendo aqueles genes chimeric, que são mais menos suscetíveis às infecções do pathogen.
