    摘要: The present invention relates to optimized systems for the genome editing of eukaryotic cells, preferably plant cells. Also provided is a plant delivery system comprising at least one Cpf1 enzyme, or a plant optimized construct encoding the same, to be synergistically combined with a Cpf1 guide RNA system. Further provided is a Cpf1 guide RNA system being flanked by a Hammerhead ribozyme sequence at the 5′ end and by a plant-derived Hepatitis Delta Vims (HDV)-like ribozyme sequence at the 3′ end, or being embedded within a coding or non-coding region, of a sequence encoding a frame sequence. Novel plant-derived HDV-like ribozyme sequences are also provided. Further provided are methods for improved genome editing, and the use of the various systems provided herein to obtain transformed plants, plant cells, tissues, organs, or a progeny thereof, or a plant material, modified in a targeted way even at difficult to access target sites.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method for plant genome modification, preferably for the targeted modification of at least one genomic target sequence, for obtaining at least one modified cell, wherein modification of a cell is achieved by providing a genome modification or editing system together with at least one regeneration booster, or a combination of regeneration boosters, which is/are transiently active in the cell and/or with at least one epigenetically regulating chemical. Preferably, the effector molecules are introduced by means of particle bombardment. Furthermore, the modified plant cell is regenerated to obtain a plant, which inherits the modification to its progeny. In addition, methods, tools, constructs and strategies are provided to effectively modify the genome of a plant cell or at least one genomic target site in a plant cell, to obtain said modified cell and to regenerate a plant tissue, organ, plant or seed from the modified cell. Finally, the present invention also relates to an improved method of regenerating a plant tissue, organ or a plant from a single plant cell.

    摘要: A system analyzes crops provided by a truck on a transport device. The truck enters the transport device to transport and unload the crops. The system includes sensors to detect an identifier of the truck, detect a temperature of the crops, and determine components of the crops. A programmable-logic controller sends paired information between the detected identifier of the truck and the detected location of the crops to a non-transitory storage medium for storage. The processor also sends the detected temperature of the crops and the determined components of the crops to the non-transitory storage medium for storage.

    摘要: The present invention generally relates to the technical field of targeted modification of a nucleotide sequence of interest in the genome of a plant by means of a site-specific nuclease, wherein the modification and precision is assisted by specifically enhancing DNA polymerase theta (Pol θ) activity to improve genome editing (GE) efficiencies, preferably for increasing targeted insertion of a DNA insert. The invention describes a method for increasing the efficiency of targeted transgene insertion in a plant or a plant cell. Further provided are methods to modulate endogenous repair pathways with the aim to favor Pol θ activity in the context of GE. Further disclosed are suitable sequences and GE tools suitable in the methods of the invention as well as cells, tissues, organs or materials obtainable by the methods.
