Abstract

Incorporating large fragments of DNA into specific genome positions is an inefficient process even when using the most cutting-edge genome-editing tools. Sun et al. recently described the prime editing-mediated recombination of opportune targets (PrimeRoot) method, which precisely and efficiently integrates large fragments of DNA into plant genomes and has enormous potential in research and agriculture.
