Gene-Editing Technology may Produce Resistant Virus in Cassava Plant
The use of gene-editing technology to create virus-resistant cassava plants could have serious negative ramifications, according to new research by plant biologists at the University of Alberta, the University of Liege in Belgium, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. Their results show that attempts to genetically engineer the plants to fight off viruses, in fact, resulted in the propagation of mutated viruses in controlled laboratory conditions.
