Efficient and innovative genome editing strategies, particularly CRISPR/Cas technology, have emerged as effective tools for improving important traits in plants, potentially revolutionizing agriculture in the face of evolving climatic conditions.
Efficient and innovative breeding strategies are immensely required to meet the global food demand, nutritional security and sustainable agriculture. Genome editing tools have emerged as an effective technology for site-directed genome modification causing the change in gene expression and protein function for the improvement of various important traits in particular the CRISPR/Cas (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats/CRISPR-associated protein). As the technology evolved with time, advances have been observed like prime editing, base editing, PAMless editing, Drosha based editing with multiple targets having the potential to fulfill the regulatory processes around the world. These recent interventions are highly proficient, cost-efficient, user-friendly, and holds promise for a major revolution in basic and applied plant biology research in the ever-evolving climatic conditions. In the review, we have discussed the most recent technologies and advances for CRISPR/Cas editing in plants.
