Self-excision of the antibiotic resistance gene npII using a heat inducible Cre-loxP system from transgenic potato

Resistance to antibiotics mediated by selectable marker genes remains a powerful selection tool for transgenic event production. However, regulatory agencies and consumer concerns favor these to be eliminated from food crops. Several excision systems exist but none have been optimized or shown to be...
