Abstract

AbstractSoybean is a major agricultural crop that is used for food, feed, and industrial products. However, soybean production is facing several challenges, including pests, diseases, and environmental factors. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in using gene editing technologies to improve soybean traits. Gene editing technologies offer a promising new approach to improving soybean production and quality.Gene editing technologies can be used to precisely alter the soybean genome. There are a number of different gene editing technologies that can be used to improve soybeans. One of the most commonly used technologies is CRISPR/Cas9, which uses a protein called Cas9 to cut DNA at a specific location. This can be used to insert, delete, or modify genes. Other gene editing technologies include zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), and transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs). Gene editing technologies have the potential to revolutionize soybean breeding. This can be used to introduce new traits, such as resistance to pests and diseases, or to improve existing traits, such as yield and oil content.The use of gene editing technologies in soybean improvement is still in its early stages, but the potential benefits are significant. Gene editing technologies offer a more precise and efficient way to improve soybean production than traditional breeding methods. They also offer the potential to create new varieties of soybeans that are better able to meet the challenges of a changing world.
