The flower organ-specific promoter is contained in the sequence consisting of nucleotides of positions from 1 to 1234 in the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:3. The promoter includes sequences derived from the above sequence by deletion, substitution, insertion or addition of one or more nucleotides and having a flower organ-specific promoter activity and also those obtainable by using the nucleotide sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:1 as a probe and having a flower organ-specific promoter activity.
