The present invention relates to a chimeric expression promoter comprising at
least one nucleic acid sequence derived from a first plant promoter containing
a plant vascular expression promoter region, where the plant vascular expression
promoter region is replaced with a nucleic acid sequence derived from a second
plant promoter and containing a plant green tissue expression promoter region.
The present invention also relates to a vector, a cell, and a transgenic plant
containing the chimeric expression promoter, as well as a method of nucleic acid
expresssion using the chimeric expression promoter.
