Figure 1: Timeline of key publications of TAL effectors.

Change history

  • 09 January 2012

    In the version of the article originally published, Figure 1 incorrectly cites Romer et al, Plant Physiol., 2009 as the article that demonstrates “Promoter customized to bind 3 TAL effectors.” It should have cited Romer et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA (2009). The errors have been corrected in the HMTL and PDF versions of the article.
