Abstract

Climate change, decreasing agricultural fields, increasing biotic and abiotic stress factors are major obstacles for agriculture and food production. In order to secure production and food safety against the rapid increase in global population and unpredictable climatic conditions, products with higher tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses are needed. Genome editing technologies have the potential to produce high yields of products under biotic and abiotic stress conditions. In this review, an overview of genome editing technologies will be presented, and the recent genome editing applications with CRISPR/Cas9 systems in plants will be mentioned.

Genom Düzenleme Teknolojileri ve Bitkilerdeki Uygulamaları

Abstract

İklim değişiklikleri, tarım arazilerinin azalması, biyotik ve abiyotik stres etmenlerinin artması tarım ve gıda üretimi için önemli engeller arasındadır. Üretim ve gıda
güvenliğinin, küresel nüfustaki hızlı artış ve öngörülemeyen iklim koşulları karşısında güvence altına alınması için biyotik ve abiyotik streslere daha fazla tolerans
gösteren ürünlere ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Genom düzenleme teknolojileri, biyotik ve
abiyotik stres koşulları altında ürünlerin yüksek verimde üretilmesine yardımcı olma
potansiyeline sahiptir. Bu derlemede, genom düzenleme teknolojilerine genel bir bakış sunulacak olup, bitkilerde CRISPR/Cas9 ile yapılan son genom düzenleme uygulamalarına değinilecektir.

Keywords
