Abstract:Since the first CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome editing of poplar in 2015, an increasing number of tree species are being genome-edited. Although the availability of genome sequences, tissue culture and transformation systems are limiting factors, research is ongoing on advanced methods such as DNA-free genome editing and gene targeting approaches in addition to the optimisation of single gene knockouts. These can be used to address ambitious issues and perform genome editing more accurately, which has implications… Show more
