title: Inducible systems see the light.
abstract: Advances in our capacity to design and use novel strategies for achieving inducible gene expression will improve our ability to define gene function. An extremely efficient system designed by nature -- that of the regulatable phytochrome system in plants -- has provided the basis for developing a novel inducible gene expression system.
