Domestication of orphan crops could be explored by editing their genomes. Genome editing
has a lot of promise for enhancing agricultural output, and there is a lot of interest in …

The classic domestication scenario for grains and fruits has been portrayed as the lucky
fixation of major-effect “domestication genes.” Characterization of these genes plus recent …

There is intense interest in using genome editing technologies to domesticate wild plants, or
accelerate the improvement of weakly domesticated crops, in de novo domestication. Here …

Creating crops with resistance to drought, soil salinity and insect damage, that
simultaneously have higher nutritional quality, is challenging to conventional breeding due …

Feeding the ever-growing population is a major challenge, especially in light of rapidly
changing climate conditions. Genome editing is set to revolutionize plant breeding and …

Crop production is facing unprecedented challenges. Despite the fact that the food supply
has significantly increased over the past half‐century,~ 8.9 and 14.3% people are still …

Genome or gene editing includes several new techniques to help scientists precisely modify
genome sequences. The techniques also enables us to alter the regulation of gene …

More than half of the calories consumed by humans are provided by three major cereal
crops (rice, maize, and wheat). Orphan crops are usually well adapted to low-input …

The global climate change and unfavourable abiotic and biotic factors are limiting
agricultural productivity and therefore intensifying the challenges for crop scientists to meet …

'Genome editing (GE) technology', represented by 'CRISPR/Cas system', became a familiar
technology to many biological laboratories, since its beginning in 2011. GE in the field of …
