Abstract:

CRISPR/Cas9 is the immune defense system in bacteria and archaea. In 1987,a special repeat interval sequence was firstly discovered in Escherichia coli. Later,this repeat interval sequence was also found in more than 20 bacteria and archaea. In 2002,this special sequence was officially named as CRISPR. Subsequently,a series of studies using CRISPR/Cas9 technology for gene editing were carried out. CRISPR/Cas9 technology is the third generation gene editing technology,following ZFNs(zinc finger nucleases)technology and TALENs(transfer activator like effector nucleases)technology. This system has the advantages of simple operation design,high mutation efficiency,low cost,and has been successively applied in many horticultural plants such as citrus,grape,banana,strawberry,cucumber,and potato. This article reviews the principles and research progress of CRISPR/Cas9 technology,discusses the developmental history of various editors,including single base editor,double base editor,and guided editor,introduces the application of CRISPR/Cas9 technology in horticultural plants,and finally proposes the remaining problems and future prospects of CRISPR/Cas9 technology.

Key words: CRISPR/Cas9, gene editor, research progress, horticultural plants
