gene-editing
Gene editing refers to the precise modification of an organism's DNA using molecular tools such as CRISPR-Cas9 to add, remove, or alter specific genetic sequences. In plant science, this technology enables researchers to develop crops with improved traits—such as disease resistance, drought tolerance, and higher yields—without introducing foreign DNA from unrelated species. This precision makes gene editing a powerful approach for accelerating crop improvement and understanding fundamental plant biology.
