What is Improving Biotic and Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Plants: A CRISPR-Cas Approach about?

Genome editing technologies have advanced speedily in the past few years and have become one of the most paramount tools in the management of abiotic and biotic stress-related damages of the plant species at the genetic level. The clustered regularly interspaced short palindrome repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) RNA-guided DNA endonuclease has the potential to edit genomes in living cells and is much easier to carry out and has outdone other gene editing tools. In this chapter, we summarize how CRISPR enables genome editing and the recent advances made in CRISPR-based technologies, especially in crop protection. We also discuss the regulatory viewpoint regarding the fate of CRISPR/Cas9 in developing biotic and abiotic resistance in crop plants and future challenges. Keywords Abiotic stress • Biotic stress • CRISPR-cas technology • Genome editing • Targeted mutagenesis #Akansha Jain and Anirban Bhar contributed equally to the work.
