Genome Editing in Cotton with the CRISPR/Cas9 System

Genome Editing in Cotton with the CRISPR/Cas9 System

Genome editing is an important tool for gene functional studies as well as crop improvement. The recent development of the CRISPR/Cas9 system using single guide RNA molecules (sgRNAs) to direct precise double strand breaks in the genome has the potential to revolutionize agriculture. Unfortunately,...
