Novel combinations of 5', 3' and intron genetic elements are provided for enhanced expression in transgenic plants. The elements are associated with a fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase gene, a chlorophyll a/b binding protein gene, a ubiquitin gene, a nopaline synthase gene, and/or a heat shock gene. Recombinant DNA molecules containing the non-translated 5' and/or 3' non-translated elements of the invention are further provided, as are plant cells, tissues and plants containing those DNA molecules. La présente invention concerne de nouvelles combinaisons d'éléments génétiques 5', 3' et intron favorisant l'expression chez les plantes transgéniques. Ces éléments sont associés à un gène de fructose 1,6 bisphosphatase, un gène protéinique liant la chlorophylle a/b, un gène d'ubiquitine, un gène de nopaline synthase et/ou un gène de choc thermique. Sont également concernées des molécules d'ADN recombinant renfermant des éléments 5' non traduits et des éléments 3' non traduits selon l'invention ainsi que des cellules de plante, des tissus de plante et des plantes renfermant ces molécules d'ADN. -
