A steroid-inducible gene expression system for plant cells

Promoters that allow the selective induction of gene expression in vivo constitute an important methodology in eukaryotic organisms such as yeast and the fruit fly, but to date no such system has been described for higher plants. Given the fact that mammalian steroid receptors can function as hormon...
