Blast infections reduce up to 50 percent of the rice produced worldwide, according to Brambilla. So she and her team set out to help using gene editing. They collaborated with a group of plant ...

The epigenetic state of chromatin, gene activity, and chromosomal positions are interrelated. A research team from the IPK Leibniz Institute (IPK) and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) has ...

Results prove that inversions can be generated in plants without causing further unwanted changes in the expression of genetic information.

“The CRISPR-Cas9 screening method distinguishes itself from RNAi by producing knockouts instead of knockdowns and it will be cleaner for many phenotypes to see the complete knockout,” David Root, ...

Synthego, a leading genome engineering solutions company, today announced the launch of the Gene Knockout Kit v2. This is the only product that leverages a novel bioinformatics- powered multi-guide ...

The epigenetic state of chromatin, gene activity ... team used CRISPR/Cas-based chromosome engineering to generate chromosomal inversions of different sizes in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.
