CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome editing and hairy root transformation are fast and effective methods for studying plant gene function. This review outlines the recent advances achieved by combining these techniques and discusses the origins of hairy root transformation strains, components of CRISPR/Cas vectors, and the application of CRISPR/Cas genome editing in hairy roots. Additionally, a method for modifying a known vector is described.
CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome editing is a powerful tool of plant functional genomics. Hairy root transformation is a rapid and convenient approach for obtaining transgenic roots. When combined, these techniques represent a fast and effective means of studying gene function. In this review, we outline the current state of the art reached by the combination of these approaches over seven years. Additionally, we discuss the origins of different Agrobacterium rhizogenes strains that are widely used for hairy root transformation; the components of CRISPR/Cas vectors, such as the promoters that drive Cas or gRNA expression, the types of Cas nuclease, and selectable and screenable markers; and the application of CRISPR/Cas genome editing in hairy roots. The modification of the already known vector pKSE401 with the addition of the rice translational enhancer OsMac3 and the gene encoding the fluorescent protein DsRed1 is also described.
