Semidwarf, lodging-tolerant rice and wheat varieties were pivotal to the Green Revolution of the 1960s and 1970s and continue to be widely adopted in global breeding programs. In wheat, mutations in R
Even the latest generation of base editor (BE3) causes unwanted indels and non-C-to-T substitutions, compromising the fidelity of base editing outcome. Here we report a enhanced base editing system. T
The main aim of this project is generating a proof-of-concept that SDN-1 gene-editing can deliver enhanced adult plant resistance (APR) or implement new sources of broad-spectrum resistance to rust di
The clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) system has been widely utilized for targeted genome modification in a wide range of species. I
