Plant Genome Editing Database (PGED) Goes Live
November 7, 2018 |
The database currently houses extensive information on gene-edited tomato, including details on genes edited using CRISPR, the name of the project, details of the transformation experiment, transformed plant variety, DNA construct used, guide RNA sequence and primers used to characterize the resulting mutations, and details about the edited plant line, such as altered sequence, zygosity, and phenotype. The database invites users to submit their own data by providing complete information about the edited plant. A comprehensive user's guide and news about CRISPR are also included in the website.
For more information, visit the database at Plant Genome Editing Database.
