Plant gene editing technology has significantly advanced in recent years, thereby transforming both biotechnological research and agricultural practices. This review provides a comprehensive summary of recent advancements in this rapidly evolving field, showcasing significant discoveries from improved transformation efficiency to advanced construct design. The primary focus is on the maturation of the Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated protein (CRISPR/Cas)9 system, which has emerged as a powerful tool for precise gene editing in plants. Through a detailed exploration, we elucidate the intricacies of integrating genetic modifications into plant genomes, shedding light on transport mechanisms, transformation techniques, and optimization strategies specific to CRISPR constructs. Furthermore, we explore the initiatives aimed at extending the frontiers of gene editing to nonmodel plant species, showcasing the growing scope of this technology. Overall, this comprehensive review highlights the significant impact of recent advancements in plant gene editing, illuminating its transformative potential in driving agricultural innovation and biotechnological progress.
