A senior from Jamaica has earned top honors at a prestigious scientific conference for his work in plant genome research.

cytosine deaminase, and uracil glycosylase inhibitor (to prevent uracil removal)—or ABE, which consists of nuclease-free Cas9 and adenosine deaminase, to the desired target sites in the plant genome.

This approach enhances genome-editing efficiency while minimizing toxicity and immune responses in plant cells. 6 Unlike traditional methods that rely on mechanical force or biological vectors, ...

Instead of integrating the CRISPR system into the plant's genome, the researchers used a technique called transient transformation. Using Agrobacterium tumefaciens — a bacterium commonly used in ...
