| Abstract | Prime editing (PE) is a recently developed, cutting-edge CRISPR/Cas gene editing technology that can accurately replace, add or remove specific pieces of DNA in an organism. Due to its high accuracy and versatility for gene editing, PE offers significant advantages over the conventional CRISPR/Cas technology and is a highly promising tool for basic plant research and applied crop breeding. This project aims to develop highly efficient and robust PE systems in rice, tomato, and poplar plants. The |
