A decade ago, the CRISPR/Cas system has been adapted for genome editing. Since then,
hundreds of organisms have been altered using genome editing and discussions were …

Abstract Background The CRISPR-Cas13 system is an RNA-guided RNA-targeting system
and has been widely used in transcriptome engineering with potentially important clinical …

CRISPR-Cas-based genome editing allows for precise and targeted genetic modification of
plants. Nevertheless, unintended off-target edits can arise that might confer risks when …

The high economic value of wood requires intensive breeding towards multipurpose
biomass. However, long breeding cycles hamper the fast development of novel tree varieties …

Livestock is an essential life commodity in modern agriculture involving breeding and
maintenance. The farming practices have evolved mainly over the last century for …

Wheat is a staple cereal in the human diet. Despite its significance, an increasing
percentage of the population suffers adverse reactions to wheat, which are triggered by …

Genome editing technologies, including CRISPR/Cas9 and TALEN, are excellent genetic
modification techniques and are being proven to be powerful tools not only in the field of …

Agricultural crops are exposed to various abiotic stresses, such as salinity, water deficits,
temperature extremes, floods, radiation, and metal toxicity. To overcome these challenges …

Classical genetic engineering and new genome editing techniques, especially the
CRISPR/Cas technology, increase the possibilities for modifying the genetic material in …
