Efficient and transgene-free genome editing in wheat through transient expression of CRISPR/Cas9 DNA or RNA

Plant genome editing typically relies upon transgenic intermediates, which is a concern given the current regulatory requirements concerning GMOs. Here, Zhang et al. describe a method to edit wheat genomes by transiently expressing CRISPR/Cas9 DNA or RNA, and are able to generate mutant plants with...
