2005 article
Matrix attachment regions and regulated transcription increase and stabilize transgene expression
Abranches, R., Shultz, R. W., Thompson, W. F., & Allen, G. C. (2005, July 7). Plant Biotechnology Journal, Vol. 3, pp. 535–543.
author keywords: PTGS; TGS; RNAi; MARs; transgene expression; induction
topics (OpenAlex): Transgenic Plants and Applications; Plant tissue culture and regeneration; Viral Infectious Diseases and Gene Expression in Insects
TL;DR:
Transgene silencing has been shown to be associated with strong promoters, but it is not known whether the propensity for silencing is caused by the level of transcription, or some other property of the promoter, so transgenes with inducible promoters may be less susceptible to silencing.
