The invention relates to transgenic expression cassettes for expressing
two nucleic acid sequences in a plant cell comprising at least one
regulatory sequence selected from the group consisting of a) the promoter
shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2, b) functional equivalents of the promoter
shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2 which have an identity of at least 80% to the
sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2 and which have substantially the same
promoter activity as the promoter shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2, c)
functional equivalents of the promoter shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2 which
comprise at least 25 consecutive nucleotides of the sequences shown in
SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2 and which have substantially the same promoter activity
as the promoter shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 or 2, and d) functionally
equivalent fragments of sequences a) or b) or c), which have at least 25
consecutive nucleotides of said sequences a) or b) or c) and have
substantially the same promoter activity as the promoter shown in SEQ ID
NO: 1 or 2, where said regulatory element is disposed between two nucleic
acid sequences and is heterogeneous in relation to said nucleic acid
sequences and is functionally linked to said nucleic acid sequences in
such a way that the expression of two different ribonucleic acid
sequences is brought about in at least one plant cell, where said
ribonucleic acid sequences are selected from ribonucleic acid sequences
coding for i) amino acid sequences or ii) ribonucleic acid sequences
which bring about a reduction in the expression of at least one
endogenous gene of said plant cell.
