Abstract

Conventional genetic transformation is a huge obstacle to the efficient development and application of plant genome-editing (GE) technologies. Recently, Maher et al. reported successful GE by de novo reprogramming plant meristems in somatic tissues, which sidesteps tissue culture-based transformation and promises to significantly enhance the utility of plant GE.
