Genome editing in wheat, polyploid and complex genome

Abstract
Genome editing technology is relatively easy to use and more cost-effective than others. By combining versatile tools to study and modify plants at different molecular levels, the CRISPR/Cas9 system is paving the way toward a new horizon for basic research and crop development. Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a stable crop providing more than 20% of daily calories intake for humans and has a complex genome formed with the combination of three different genomes: A, B, and D. The hexaploid wheat genome makes this plant an important model for studying and optimizing the genome editing system. In our study, we applied the CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing system for abiotic stress response genes and small RNA genes. The CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing system in wheat was effectively established using different proteins as well.
