TALENs application is one of the new tools and practices referred to as plant breeding innovations. TALENs are extremely precise and have additional capabilities compared to CRISPR-Cas9, such as targeting any DNA sequence, discriminating between methylated and unmethylated DNA targets, modifying DNA within organelles such as mitochondria. TALENs have been recognized as a significant tool in science by various entities. These include the Method of the Year award given by Nature Methods in 2011.
