The Green Revolution of the 1960s improved crop yields in part through the widespread
cultivation of semidwarf plant varieties, which resist lodging but require a high-nitrogen (N) …

Targeted mutagenesis via genome‐editing technologies holds great promise in developing
improved crop varieties to meet future demands. Point mutations or single nucleotide …

CRISPR/Cas9 (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-
associated Cas9) has been widely used in genome editing in a variety of organisms …

The plant hormone gibberellin (GA) regulates major aspects of plant growth and
development. The role of GA in determining plant stature had major impacts on agriculture in …

Precise modification of eukaryotic genomes has been accomplished mainly through
homology-directed repair (HDR) of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs)(Hess et al., 2017) …

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the major food source for more than three billion people of the
world. In the last few decades, the classical, mutational, and molecular breeding approaches …

The advent of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) has had a
profound impact on plant biology, and crop improvement. In this review, we summarize the …

The introduction of the Reduced height (Rht)-B1b and Rht-D1b semidwarfing genes led to
impressive increases in wheat (Triticum aestivum) yields during the Green Revolution. The …

GAs are a family of tetracyclic diterpenoid plant hormones that stimulate plant growth and
developmental transitions. As sessile organisms, plants rely on developmental plasticity to …

The phytohormone gibberellin (GA) has long been known to regulate the growth,
development, and life cycle progression of flowering plants. However, the molecular GA …
