CRISPR Revolutionizes Tomato Breeding For Superior Crops
Received Date: May 01, 2025 / Published Date: May 29, 2025
Abstract
CRISPR-Cas gene editing offers a powerful platform for precise genetic modifications in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), accelerating trait improvement. Applications include enhancing disease resistance, improving nutritional value, and extending shelf-life. Ongoing research focuses on refining CRISPR system efficiency, understanding gene function, and developing multiplex editing for complex traits. This technology, integrated with advanced breeding methods, is crucial for developing elite tomato varieties and addressing agricultural challenges.
