GÉNIE GÉNÉTIQUE DE CULTURES BASÉ SUR L'ÉDITION GÉNIQUE ET PRODUCTION DE PLANTES BRACHYTIQUES

摘要

Disclosed herein are plants exhibiting a semi-dwarf phenotype with reduced plant height compared to control wildtype plants. Some of the disclosed semi-dwarf plants comprise at least one non-natural brachytic mutation in which the activity of a BR2 gene is reduced. Also disclosed are methods for producing a semi-dwarf corn plant using a CRISPR based genome editing system.
