2007 journal article

The tobacco Cel7 gene promoter is auxin-responsive and locally induced in nematode feeding sites of heterologous plants

MOLECULAR PLANT PATHOLOGY, 8(4), 423–436.

By: X. Wang*, A. Replogle*, E. Davis n & M. Mitchum*

TL;DR: The conserved developmental and nematode-responsive expression of the NtCel7 promoter in heterologous plants indicates that motifs of this regulatory element play a fundamental role in regulating Ntcel7 gene expression within nematodes feeding sites and that this regulation may be mediated by auxin.
