Plant Breeding and Biotechnology

21.5K
Crop cultivation has a long history in human civilization, with records showing the cultivation of cereal plants beginning at around 8000 BC. This early plant breeding was developed primarily to provide a steady supply of food.

CRISPR/Cas9 Genome Editing

1.7K
The CRISPR-Cas system serves as a bacterial defense mechanism against invading genetic elements such as viruses and plasmids, forming the foundation for its adaptation as a powerful genome-editing tool. Originally discovered in prokaryotes, this system has been repurposed to revolutionize genetic engineering across a wide range of organisms, including plants, animals, and humans. The core component, Cas9, is an endonuclease derived from Streptococcus pyogenes, capable of introducing...

Transgenic Plants

8.5K
Recombinant DNA technology called transgenesis is often used to add a foreign gene or remove a detrimental gene from an organism. Such genetically modified organisms are called transgenic organisms.
The first-ever transgenic plant was a tobacco plant developed in 1983 that showed resistance against the tobacco mosaic virus. Since then, many transgenic plants have been developed and commercialized for improving the agricultural, ornamental, and horticultural value of a crop plant. Transgenic...

Genome editing technologies allow scientists to modify an organism’s DNA via the addition, removal, or rearrangement of genetic material at specific genomic locations. These types of techniques could potentially be used to cure genetic disorders such as hemophilia and sickle cell anemia. One popular and widely used DNA-editing research tool that could lead to safe and effective cures for genetic disorders is the CRISPR-Cas9 system. CRISPR-Cas9 stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced...

Area of Science:

  • Agricultural Science
  • Molecular Biology
  • Genetics

Background:

  • Sustainable agriculture requires effective weed management for global food security.
  • Herbicide resistance (HR) is crucial for efficient crop production.
  • CRISPR/Cas9 has been used for genetic modification, but CRISPR/dCas9 for epigenome editing in HR is underexplored.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the potential of CRISPR/dCas9-driven epigenome editing for developing sustainable herbicide resistance.
  • To investigate a non-genetic approach for introducing heritable HR traits in crops.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing CRISPR/dCas9 technology to target regulatory regions of genes.
  • Employing epigenome editing to control gene expression without altering DNA sequences.
  • Investigating time- and tissue-specific gene expression control.

Main Results:

  • CRISPR/dCas9 enables precise targeting of gene regulatory regions.
  • Epigenome editing offers a non-genetic pathway to introduce heritable HR traits.
  • Potential for time- and tissue-specific control of herbicide sensitivity/detoxification genes.

Conclusions:

  • CRISPR/dCas9-driven epigenome editing presents a transformative, eco-friendly strategy for sustainable HR development.
