Recent applications of base editing (a) and epigenetic editing (b) technologies in plants. a Co-editing of two genes (TaALS and TaACCase) by using dCas9 fused with CBE [27]. The approach produced nicosulfuron-resistant wheat plants with mutations in the two genes but without transgenes. b Targeted demethylation of the FWA promoter by using dCas9-Suntag-hTET1cd in Arabidopsis [28]. The approach resulted in the activation of FWA gene expression. Demethylation and late-flowering phenotypes were inherited by T2 generation without transgenes
