The CRISPR/Cas9 system is being used for genome editing purposes by many research groups in multiple plant species. Traditional sequencing methods to identify homozygous mutants are time-consuming, laborious and expensive.
We have developed a method to screen CRISPR/Cas9-induced mutants through Mutation Sites Based Specific Primers Polymerase Chain Reaction (MSBSP-PCR). The MSBSP-PCR method was successfully used to identify homozygous/biallelic mutants in and , and we speculate that it can be used for the identification of CRISPR/Cas9-induced mutants in other plant species. Compared to traditional sequencing methods, MSBSP-PCR is simpler, faster and cheaper.
The MSBSP-PCR method is simple to implement and can save time and cost in the screening of CRISPR/Cas9-induced homozygous/biallelic mutants.
许多研究小组正在多种植物物种中使用CRISPR/Cas9系统进行基因组编辑。传统的用于鉴定纯合突变体的测序方法既耗时、费力又昂贵。
我们开发了一种通过基于突变位点的特异性引物聚合酶链反应(MSBSP-PCR)筛选CRISPR/Cas9诱导突变体的方法。MSBSP-PCR方法已成功用于鉴定[具体物种1]和[具体物种2]中的纯合/双等位基因突变体,并且我们推测它可用于鉴定其他植物物种中CRISPR/Cas9诱导的突变体。与传统测序方法相比,MSBSP-PCR更简单、快速且成本更低。
MSBSP-PCR方法易于实施,并且在筛选CRISPR/Cas9诱导的纯合/双等位基因突变体时可节省时间和成本。
