J Integr Plant Biol. 2024 Apr;66(4):638-641. doi: 10.1111/jipb.13624. Epub 2024 Feb 13.

Abstract

The compact CRISPR/CasΦ2 system provides a complementary genome engineering tool for efficient gene editing including cytosine and adenosine base editing in wheat and rye with high specificity, efficient use of the protospacer-adjacent motif TTN, and an alternative base-editing window.
