Improving cassava bacterial blight resistance by editing the epigenome

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Kira M. Veley from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the paper: Improving cassava bacterial blight resistance by editing the epigenome, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 15/Dec/2022
  • what: The authors demonstrate that this methylation prevents TAL20 binding, blocks transcriptional activation of MeSWEET10a in_vivo and that these plants display decreased CBB symptoms while maintaining normal growth and development. The authors show directed DNA methylation to the TAL20 EBE within the MeSWEET10a promoter using a ZF fused to DMS3. The authors show that DMS3 paired with an artificial ZF caused targeted, de novo establishment of methylation . . .
