Abstract
It is increasingly evident that transcription control might be conserved among organisms. For this reason, genome sequencing and gene expression profiling methods, which have yielded a plethora of data in different organisms, may be applied in species where genomic sequence is limited to mostly expression array and EST data. The identification of transcription factors and promoters associated with gene expression profiles and ESTs could therefore contribute to elucidate and predict complex regulatory events in plants.
