For instance, when using a gene-editing technique such as CRISPR-Cas-9, what are the concerns/controversies in using this technique to edit the genome of food crops for human consumption ?
Nice question . Many researchers still feel , genome editing is part of developing a genetically modified organism /plant . And , it is in latest controversy . its good , you have this important issue...
As it is easy and cheap,it may lead to a huge use for genome editing. At the moment, we cannot edit any genome,in fact the human genome should not be edited as we cannot predict the result. With the rest of the organisms it works
There have been distinct advantages of CRISPR Cas 9 in horticulture crops. No controversy in food crops. Exception is outcry due to gene editing of human.....
