Targeted mutagenesis using CRISPR-Cas9 in the chelicerate herbivore <i>Tetranychus urticae</i>
2019-12-27
Abstract excerpt
The use of CRISPR-Cas9 has revolutionized functional genetic work in many organisms, including more and more insect species. However, successful gene editing or genetic transformation has not yet been reported for chelicerates, the second largest group of terrestrial animals. Within this group, some mite and tick species are economically very important for agriculture and human health, and the availability of a ge...
