Researchers Fine-Tune CRISPR-Cas9 Gene Editing in Common Bean |
|
A study from Frontiers in Plant Science shows that the hairy root transformation system allowed a rapid evaluation of multiple single guide RNA (sgRNA) and promoters in common beans (Phaseolus Vulgaris L.). Results also indicate that the Lindel repair model is deemed the most effective tool for predicting sgRNA efficiency and the type of induced mutation in most hairy roots in common beans.

Researchers Develop Software Tool for Safer Gene Editing Design |
|
A team of researchers has developed a software tool called DANGER (Deleterious and ANticipatable Guides Evaluated by RNA-sequencing) analysis. The tool provides a way to establish a safer genome editing design for all organisms with a transcriptome, including crops.
