Tel Aviv University researchers used CRISPR to edit tomato genes, boosting water use efficiency without reducing yield.
Researchers at Tel Aviv University have used CRISPR genetic editing technology to cultivate tomato varieties with higher water use efficiency without compromising yield.
The team targeted a gene called ROP9, which affects the opening and closing of stomata, leading to partial closure during midday, reducing water loss.
This discovery could lead to the development of additional crop plants with enhanced water use efficiency and a better understanding of stomatal regulation.
