CRISPR/Cas-Mediated Genome Editing Technologies in Plants for Stress Resilience

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Antioxidant Defense in Plants

Abstract

Climate change can affect agriculture through various abiotic (temperature: low/high, salinity, heavy metals, water submergence, and water deficiency) and biotic (bacterial, viral, fungal) stress factors. Climate change leads to above 50% of worldwide losses in the yield of major crops per year. Nutrition demand is going to nearly double by the 2050. Recent genome editing approach of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein (Cas) system is a leading, powerful, versatile, ground-breaking, and smart plant genome editing tool with greater efficiency for designing of stress resilient crops. CRISPR/Cas can cause activation and interference of genes related to stress regulatory networks for advanced tolerance to stress scenarios.
