Since it was first recognized in bacteria and archaea as a mechanism for innate viral
immunity in the early 2010s, clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats …

Background It is a long-standing goal of scientists and breeders to precisely control a gene
for studying its function as well as improving crop yield, quality, and tolerance to various …

The various crop species are major agricultural products and play an indispensable role in
sustaining human life. Over a long period, breeders strove to increase crop yield and …

Seed oil content (SOC) is a highly important and complex trait in oil crops. Here, we
decipher the genetic basis of natural variation in SOC of Brassica napus by genome-and …

Yellow-seed trait is a desirable breeding characteristic of rapeseed (Brassica napus) that
could greatly improve seed oil yield and quality. However, the underlying mechanisms …

The global malnutrition burden imparts long-term developmental, economic, social, and
medical consequences to individuals, communities, and countries. The current …

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

CRISPR/Cas, one of the most rapidly developing technologies in the world, has been
applied successfully in plant science. To test new nucleases, gRNA expression systems and …

Gene editing (GE) has become one of the mainstream bioengineering technologies over the
past two decades, mainly fueled by the rapid development of the CRISPR/Cas system since …

CRISPR/Cas‐base editing is an emerging technology that could convert a nucleotide to
another type at the target site. In this study, A3A‐PBE system consisting of human A3A …
