CRISPR-Based Crop Improvements: A Way Forward to Achieve Zero Hunger

Zero hunger is one of the sustainable development goals set by United Nations in 2015 to achieve global food security 2030. The current harvest crops insufficient; feeding world’s population and meeting goal zero 2030 will require larger more consistent crop production. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-associated protein (CRISPR-Cas) technology widely used for plant genome editing. In this review, we consider as a potential tool achieving hunger. We provide comprehensive overview CRISPR-Cas its most important applications crops’ improvement. also conferred technological breakthroughs that help breeding future end regulatory aspects deploying commercial sectors, bioethics, production transgene-free plants are discussed. hope system accelerate improved cultivars compared with conventional pave way toward goal.
