摘 要:The CRISPR(clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)-associated protein 9(Cas9)system is a powerful tool for targeted genome editing,with applications that include plant biotechnology and functional genomics ***,the specificity of Cas9 targeting is poorly investigated in many plant species,including fruit *** assess the off-target mutation rate in grapevine(Vitis vinifera),we performed whole-genome sequencing(WGS)of seven Cas9-edited grapevine plants in which one of two genes was targeted by CRISPR/Cas9 and three wild-type(WT)*** total,we identified between 202,008 and 272,397 single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)and between 26,391 and 55,414 insertions/deletions(indels)in the seven Cas9-edited grapevine plants compared with the three WT ***,3272 potential off-target sites were selected for further *** one off-target indel mutation was identified from the WGS data and validated by Sanger *** addition,we found 243 newly generated off-target sites caused by genetic variants between the Thompson Seedless cultivar and the grape reference genome(PN40024)but no true off-target *** conclusion,we observed high specificity of CRISPR/Cas9 for genome editing of grapevine.
