ieSi57 [eft-3p::TIR1::mRuby::unc-54 3'UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] II. ieSi58 [eft-3p::degron::GFP::unc-54 3'UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] IV. ieSi57 is a single copy transgene inserted into chromosome II (oxTi179) expressing modified Arabidopsis thaliana TIR1 tagged with mRuby in the soma. ieSi58 is a single copy transgene inserted into chromosome IV (oxTi177) expressing degron::GFP in the soma. This strain can be used as control for auxin-inducible degradation (AID) in somatic tissues. Reference: Zhang L, et al. Development. 2015 Nov 9. pii: dev.129635.

ieSi58 [eft-3p::degron::GFP::unc-54 3'UTR + Cbr-unc-119(+)] IV. Single copy transgene inserted into chromosome IV (oxTi177) expressing degron::GFP in the soma. This strain can be combined with different TIR1 strains to test auxin-inducible degradation (AID) of protein in somatic tissue. Reference: Zhang L, et al. Development. 2015 Nov 9. pii: dev.129635.
