Enhancing the efficiency of plant genome editing

Date of Publication:

By using a virus-based vector composed of a compact genome-editing enzyme and RNA, we successfully increased the efficiency of producing genome-edited plants free from foreign DNA by more than 30-fold compared with previous methods. By applying this achievement, it will be possible to expand the range of plant species in which genome editing can be utilized for breeding.
