food supplies one of the main issues in the future and with increasing
population size and decline in the amount of land available for growing
crops the stress pressure and agricultural environments will increase
and therefore we need to work on on releasing new varieties that can
cope with this stress environments and the CRISPR Cas9 technology will be
one important tool and the CRISPR Cas9 technology it is very easy
to implement you can consider it as a molecular scissors that can make changes
specifically very precisely in a particular place in the genome and using
this tool you can replace bad parts of the genome and then
insert parts that will improve the gene edited plants depending on which
gene you modify can have improved traits that with it can be increased
yield it can be improved disease resistance it can be improved
nutritional quality the resources for CRISPR Cas9 gene editing are being
developed for these crops and it is becoming quite powerful tool that
breeders and geneticists hope to use in the future for improving not only
wheat but also many other crops
