Products of genome editing as the most promising “New Plant Breeding Technology”(NPBT)
have made the transition from the lab to the market in a short time. Globally, research …

The rapid increase in herbicide-resistant weeds creates a huge challenge to global food
security because it can reduce crop production, causing considerable losses. Combined …

Current base editors (BEs) catalyze only base transitions (C to T and A to G) and cannot
produce base transversions. Here we present BEs that cause C-to-A transversions in …

Genome editing tools have rapidly been adopted by plant scientists for gene function
discovery and crop improvement. The current technical challenge is to efficiently induce …
