Dual transcription and splicing regulation eliminates leaky hypersensitive response. (A) Nicotiana benthamiana leaf with three spots transiently co-transformed with Agrobacterium tumefaciens to introduce SuperPromoter::Bs2-HA resistance gene and either (i) constitutive (35S) avrBs2-HA, (ii) Dex-inducible (6xUAS) avrBs2-HA or (iii) Dex-inducible avrBs2-HyP5SM-HA. The leaf was not treated with Dex and OsL5 is not co-expressed. (B) Scheme representing how a two input system that combines promoter and suicide exon elements to control transcription and alternative splicing, respectively, results in tighter regulation of phenotype compared to a one input system (promoter alone). See Supplementary Figure S1 for a related scheme showing the case in the presence of inputs.
