Abstract
Plant diseases have significant adverse impacts on the food security and biodiversity, making effective diagnosis extremely essential for efficient and sustainable plant disease management. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and the CRISPR-associated protein (Cas)-based systems have emerged as powerful tools for detecting plant pathogens, due to their fast speed, and excellent accuracy. However, a comprehensive systematic review of the application of CRISPR/Cas in plant disease diagnosis is lacking, which partially hampers the practical application. This review firstly discusses the underlying principles of CRISPR/Cas-based biosensing technology. Then it highlights the significant applications in detecting plant viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Finally, it provides insightful analysis and predictions regarding the future development of the CRISPR/Cas system for diagnosing plant diseases. This review not only contributes to the advancement of plant disease diagnosis technology based on the CRISPR/Cas system, but also offers inspiration for smart plant protection and precision agriculture.
