Genome editing (GE) has revolutionized the biological sciences by creating a novel
approach for manipulating the genomes of living organisms. Many tools have been …

Breeding has been used successfully for many years in the fruit industry, giving rise to most
of today's commercial fruit cultivars. More recently, new molecular breeding techniques have …

Genome editing technology is important for plant science and crop breeding. Genome-
edited plants prepared using general CRISPR-Cas9 methods usually contain foreign DNA …

Genome editing is a relevant, versatile, and preferred tool for crop improvement, as well as
for functional genomics. In this review, we summarize the advances in gene-editing …

Background The genetic engineering of crops has enhanced productivity in the face of
climate change and a growing global population by conferring desirable genetic traits …

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) is an outcrossing tetraploid legume species widely cultivated in the
world. The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR …

DELAY OF GERMINATION-1 (DOG1), is a master regulator of primary dormancy (PD) that
acts in concert with ABA to delay germination. The ABA and DOG1 signaling pathways …

The CRISPR/Cas9 system is a remarkably promising tool for targeted gene mutagenesis,
and becoming ever more popular for modification of ornamental plants. In this study we …

Fruit and vegetable crops are rich in dietary fibre, vitamins and minerals, which are vital to
human health. However, many biotic stressors (such as pests and diseases) and abiotic …

Among the New Plant Breeding Techniques (NPBTs), the CRISPR/Cas9 system represents
a useful tool for target gene editing, improving the traits of the plants rapidly. This technology …
