CONFERRING RESISTANCE TO GEMINIVIRUSES IN PLANTS IN ALTERNATIVE MANNER TO GENE DRIVE, USING CRISPR/CAS SYSTEMS

摘要

Materials and methods for conferring geminivirus resistance to plants or plant cells, and particularly to materials and methods for using CRISPR/Cas or CRISPR/Cpf1 systems to confer resistance to geminiviruses. Materials and methods are described to insert sequence at a double stranded break in a geminivirus genome.
