Demonstration of targeted crossovers in hybrid maize using CRISPR technology
2021-05-19
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Naturally occurring chromosomal crossovers (CO) during meiosis are a key driver of genetic diversity. The ability to target CO at specific allelic loci in hybrid plants would provide a significant advantage to the plant breeding process by facilitating trait introgression, and potentially increasing the rate of genetic gain. We present the first demonstration of targeted CO in hybrid ma...
