Plant Genome Editing with CRISPR / Cas9

INQUIRY

Introductions

CRISPR / Cas9 genome editing technology has become a revolutionary tool in the field of life sciences, providing efficient, fast and cheap genetic manipulation tools for basic research in botany and genetic improvement of crops. The CRISPR / Cas9 system can achieve precise knock-out and knock-in genetic operations, and can also be used to target activation or inhibition of gene expression. Crop varieties improved using CRISPR / Cas9 technology have also emerged, which will surely promote the application and development of precision genome editing technology in crop genetic improvement. Today, CRISPR technology has been used in the transformation of many plant genomes, including model organisms such as Arabidopsis thaliana and Medicago truncatula, and important economic crops such as potatoes, corn, wheat, rice and mushrooms.
