From a potato genomic library a phage lambda clone was isolated that carried nucleotide sequences of two patatin genes, thus demonstrating a close physical linkage between these two members of the patatin gene family. Sequence and restriction analysis showed the genes to be oriented in tandem. The more upstream gene was a pseudogene truncated at the 3' end, whereas the downstream gene was a class II patatin gene. In addition to a 208 bp fragment also present in patatin class I promoters, the region in between both genes contained various direct repeats also found in other patatin genes. To study the promoter activity of this intergenic region, a 2.78 kb fragment was transcriptionally fused to the beta-glucuronidase gene and reintroduced into potato cultivar Bintje. Histochemical analysis revealed expression in the outermost layer of cells of the cortex, in the tuber phellogen, in or around the root vascular system, and also in the abaxial phloem layer of the vascular bundle in leaves.
