Gene editing the phytoene desaturase alleles of Cavendish banana using CRISPR/Cas9

Gene editing the phytoene desaturase alleles of Cavendish banana using CRISPR/Cas9

Bananas are a staple food source and a major export commodity worldwide. The Cavendish dessert banana is a triploid AAA genome type and accounts for around 47% of global production. Being essentially sterile, genetic modification is perhaps the only pathway available to improve this cultivar. In thi...
