摘要

控制直链淀粉合成的Waxy (Wx)基因是一个古老但广泛应用于改善淀粉类作物品质的靶标。新的基因组编辑策略正在被部署，以创建有益的Wx等位基因与精细调节直链淀粉含量(AC)。精确的目标必须与传统方法相结合，以开发更健康和高质量的育种品系。

Waxy Editing: Old Meets New.

The Waxy (Wx) gene that governs amylose synthesis is an old but widely used target in improving the quality of starchy crops. New genome-editing strategies are being deployed to create beneficial Wx alleles with finely tuned amylose content (AC). Precise targeting must be combined with traditional approaches to develop healthier and high-quality breeding lines.
