The present invention relates to polynucleotide molecules for regulating gene expression in plants. In particular, the present invention relates to promoters isolated from Brassica napus that are useful for regulating gene expression of heterologous polynucleotide molecules in plants. The present invention also relates to expression constructs and transgenic plants containing the heterologous polynucleotide molecules.
