          Patent 5,500,365 are drawn to modified chimeric genes, and plants           
          transformed by modified chimeric genes, comprising a structural             
          coding sequence modified to contain “at least one fewer sequence            
          selected from the group consisting of a AACCAA and an AATTAA

          contain “at least one fewer sequence selected from the group
