摘要

基因组编辑在缓解非洲持续存在的粮食不安全问题方面具有巨大潜力。然而，实现这一目标面临着无数挑战。我们介绍了我们认为对非洲早日实现商业化农业基因组编辑起飞至关重要的组成部分。我们回顾了基于 CRISPR/Cas 系统的不断发展的基因组编辑技术。然后，我们介绍了为改善非洲粮食可持续性而开展的基因组编辑研究现状，以及在短期内实现商业化的可能性。

Africanizing genome editing for food sustainability

Genome editing has great potential to alleviate the persistent food insecurity in Africa. However, achieving this goal is faced with a myriad of challenges. We describe components that we envisage are crucial in positioning Africa for an early commercial agricultural genome editing take-off. We review the evolving genome editing technologies based on CRISPR/Cas systems. We then present the status of research in genome editing to improve food sustainability in Africa, and its potential commercialization in the short-term.

期刊介绍： Global Food Security plays a vital role in addressing food security challenges from local to global levels. To secure food systems, it emphasizes multifaceted actions considering technological, biophysical, institutional, economic, social, and political factors. The goal is to foster food systems that meet nutritional needs, preserve the environment, support livelihoods, tackle climate change, and diminish inequalities. This journal serves as a platform for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to access and engage with recent, diverse research and perspectives on achieving sustainable food security globally. It aspires to be an internationally recognized resource presenting cutting-edge insights in an accessible manner to a broad audience.
