Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: This study demonstrates that CRISPR-mediated cis-regulatory element editing (CRE editing) of the SD1 promoter effectively reduces plant height in Kam sweet rice, without compromising yield or grain quality, offering a precise strategy for crop improvement. Kam sweet rice, a unique aromatic variety, faces challenges with excessive plant height and suboptimal yield. This study explores a precision...
