Biolistic delivery systems for stably edited plants

We use biolistic-mediated gene gun delivery systems for the generation of transgene-free genome-edited plants. We can successfully deliver DNA, RNA, or protein complexes to directly recover transgene-free edited plants. We have optimized our bombardment methods for many species, including rice, wheat, corn, oat, foxtail millet, peanut, ryegrass, alfalfa, barley, and more.

Agrobacterium-mediated delivery systems for stably edited plants

We developed many Agrobacterium-mediated delivery approaches for the generation of genome-edited plants. We can also successfully recover transgene-free edited plants under certain conditions. We have optimized our methods for many species, including rice, wheat, corn, soybean, potato, oats, foxtail millet, canola, peanut, alfalfa, tomato, lettuce, pepper, pumpkin, cabbage, sugar beet, mung bean, barley, and more.

Protoplast transfection delivery systems for stably edited plants

We have successfully developed many protoplast transformation systems and recovery methods in certain crop species. This approach is particularly useful when delivering RNA or protein to enable direct transgene-free genome editing in plants.

Our team develops
four types of
genome editing tools

—— Editing tools

Nucleases

  1. Broad targeting
  2. Efficient double-strand break formation for gene knockout
  3. Novel nucleases to circumvent pre-existing immunity
  4. Small for efficient protein expression and delivery

—— Editing tools

Base Editors

  1. Precise single base edit
  2. No formation of double-strand breaks or large cellular perturbations
  3. New and proprietary deaminases
  4. More efficient and less cellular off-targets

—— Editing tools

Prime Editors

Precise single base substitutions, small DNA fragment insertions and deletions at a programmable genomic site.

—— Editing tools

PrimeROOT™

Programmable gene-size insertions in cellular genomes.

Gene stacking for introducing multiple traits.
