CRISPR-CAS Technology Used in Plants

Shunyuan Xiao

The CRISPR/Cas9 system has been successfully applied in various plant species. The introduced mutations are inherited by the next generation of plants, indicating that plant genome editing can be used for plant research and the production of useful plants. Since the CRISPR-Cas system was successfully engineered to edit plant genomes in 2013, numerous efforts have been made to transform it into a more powerful tool. At present, CRISPR-Cas has multiplex editing capability, that is, it edits more than one gene at a time.
