This volume provides readers with a collection of the latest protocols used to study plant genome editing and trait engineering. The chapters in this book are organized into five parts: genome engineering systems; machinery design and validation; delivery tools; generation and analysis of engineering materials; and crop genome engineering applications. The chapters cover topics such as methods of applying the popular CRISPR-Cas9 or CRISPR-Cas12 systems for editing genomes in different crop species, the use of small synthetic plastome for potato genome engineering, and the use of CRISPR-Cas9 for algal cell genome engineering. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Cutting-edge and comprehensive, Plant Genome Engineering: Methods and Protocols is a valuable tool for researchers interested in learning more about this developing and important field.
