However, a convenient system that can tightly regulate transgene expression in Nicotiana benthamiana is still lacking. In this study, we developed a tightly regulated copper‐inducible system that can control transgene expression and conduct cell death assays in N. benthamiana. We tested several chemical‐inducible systems using Agrobacterium‐mediated transient expression and found that the copper‐inducible system exhibited the least concerns regarding leakiness in N. benthamiana. Although the copper‐inducible system can control the expression of some tested reporters, it is not sufficiently tight to regulate certain tested hypersensitive cell death responses. Using the MoClo‐based synthetic biology approach, we incorporated the suicide exon HyP5SM/OsL5 and Cre/LoxP as additional regulatory elements to enhance the tightness of the regulation. This new design allowed us to tightly control the hypersensitive cell death induced by several tested leucine‐rich repeat‐containing proteins and their matching avirulence factors, and it can be easily applied to regulate the expression of other transgenes in transient expression assays. Our findings offer new approaches for both fundamental and translational studies in plant functional genomics. 10.1111/nph.20021 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
