Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, I attempted to develop the technology for the regulation of the recombination spots mediated by CRISPR/Cas9 in meiosis. First, transgenic plants were produced as a material for monitoring meiotic recombination events visually in rice and Arabidopsis. Besides, to express CRISPR/Cas9 during meiosis, 3-kb of upstream regions in 3 genes that strongly express in meiosis were isolated. Transformed rice harboring CRISPR/Cas9 driven by these promoters were produced. However, there were no targeted mutagenesis events in these plants in the T1 generation.
