Abstract excerpt
In plant cells, overexpression of critical genes can be hampered by deleterious effects on development that results in a counterselection of transgenic cells harboring the gene of interest. Inducible expression systems have been reported, but many of them show unwanted leaky expression. To circumvent this potential problem, a novel inducible system was developed based on two previously characterized systems: the...
