Engineering herbicide resistance via prime editing in rice
Open accessAbstract
Although CRISPR-Cas9 has revolutionized our ability to generate site-specific double-strand breaks, precise editing of the genome remains challenging in most eukaryotes, including plants (Shan et al., 2013).In plants homology-directed repair is inefficient, limiting our ability to make precise edits of the

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.
