Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS
[received by the International Bureau on 5 January 1990 (05.01.90); original claims 7,9 and 13 amended; other claims unchanged (3 pages)]
1. A substantially pure plant defense gene promoter that directs stress-regulated expression of an operatively linked gene, said promoter selected from the group consisting of: promoters for the plant genes that encode the phenylpropanoid biosynthetic enzymes phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), chalcone synthase (CHS), and 4-coumarate:CoA ligase (4CL), plus promoters for the plant genes that encode the cell wall hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins.
2. A substantially pure functional domain in the promoter of Claim 1, wherein said functional domain is selected from the group consisting of (1) an elicitor-regulated activator domain, and (2) an upstream silencer domain.
3. A DNA sequence comprising: ACCAATTATTGGTTACTAAATTTAACAGTGAATGAATGAATGAGTTATA.
4. A DNA sequence comprising: CACGTGATACTCACCTACCCTAC. 5. A DNA sequence having substantial sequence homology with the DNA sequences in any of Claims 3 or 4.
6. Chimeric plasmids selected from the group consisting of pCHC1 and pCHC2.
7. A chimeric gene cassette (CGC) comprising: (a) a promoter selected from the group consisting of promoters for the plant genes that encode phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), chalcone synthase (CHS), 4-coumarate:CoA ligase (4CL), and promoters for the plant genes that encode cell wall hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins; wherein said promoter is operatively linked to (b) at least one reporter gene; and (c) a 3' terminator.
8. A chimeric gene cassette (CGC) according to Claim 7 wherein said reporter gene is selected from the group consisting of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) and beta glucuronidase (GUS).
9. A chimeric gene cassette (CGC) comprising: (a) a promoter selected from the group consisting of promoters for the plant genes that encode phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), chalcone synthase (CHS), 4-coumarate: CoA ligase (4CL), and promoters for the plant genes that encode cell wall hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins; wherein said promoter is 10 operatively linked to (b) at least one structural gene capable of being expressed in plants ; and (c) a 3 ' terminator.
10. A chimeric gene cassette (CGC) according to any of Claims 7 or 9 wherein said 3' terminator is selected from the group consisting of the 3' flanking region of the nopaline synthase (NOS) gene and the 3' flanking region of the octopine synthase (OCS) gene.
11. The reduced form of glutathione when used exogenously to activate plant defense genes.
12. A method for activating plant genes, said method comprising: applying reduced glutathione exogenously to plant material that contains a structural gene operatively linked to a promoter that is activated by reduced glutathione.
13. A method according to Claim 12 wherein said promoter is selected from the group consisting of promoters for the plant genes that encode phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), chalcone synthase (CHS), 4- coumarate: CoA ligase (4CL), and promoters for the plant genes that encode the cell wall hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins.
14. Plant material engineered with human effort wherein said plant material contains the chimeric gene cassette (CGC) any of Claims 7 or 9.
15. Plant material according to Claim 14 wherein said plant material is selected from the group
