Development and application of prime editing in plants
Open accessAbstract
Clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein (Cas)-mediated genome editing has greatly accelerated progress in plant genetic research and agricultural breeding by enabling targeted genomic modifications. Moreover, the prime editing system, derived from the CRISPR/Cas system, has opened the door for even more precise genome editing. Prime editing has the capability to facilitate all 12 types of base-to-base conversions, as well as desired insertions or deletions of fragments, without inducing double-strand breaks and requiring donor DNA templet. In a short time, prime editing has been rapidly verified as functional in various plants, and can be used in plant genome functional analysis as well as precision breeding of crops. In this review, we summarize the emergence and development of prime editing, highlight recent advances in improving its efficiency in plants, introduce the current applications of prime editing in plants, and look forward to future prospects for untilizing prime editing in genetic improvement and precision molecular breeding.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
