ISAAA releases new Pocket K on CRISPR-Cas9

August 9, 2017

The CRISPR-Cas9 system is a plant breeding innovation that uses site-directed nucleases to target and modify DNA with great accuracy. Developed in 2012 by scientists from the University of California, Berkeley, CRISPR-Cas9 has received a lot of attention in recent years due to its range of applications, including biological research, breeding and development of agricultural crops and animals, and human health applications. Know more about the CRISPR-Cas9 system in the latest Pocket K released by ISAAA. Get a copy for free from the ISAAA website.

Pocket Ks are Pockets of Knowledge, packaged information about crop biotechnology products and related issues. It is developed by the Global Knowledge Center on Crop Biotechnology to deliver key agri-biotech information in easy-to-understand style and downloadable as PDF for easy sharing and distribution.

Download the other Pocket Ks from the ISAAA website.
