Abstract

Rice, as an essential food in human life, is in increasing demand for food in today's society with such a large population. CRISPR, as the most popular gene editing system at present, has the characteristics of precision, low cost, and simple operation, so it is able to modify the genes of rice to a large extent in order to control its traits and cultivate excellent varieties. In order to better address the demand for food in society, this article conducts gene editing on rice from the perspective of using the CRISPR/Cas system. It provides a brief introduction to the relevant genes and control methods for controlling rice yield in current scientific research achievements, as well as a specific explanation of the relevant genes and control methods for stress resistance such as salt tolerance, cold resistance, and disease resistance. At the same time, in addition to the summary of the current research status, suggestions and prospects are also put forward for the shortcomings of the CRISPR/Cas system in the application of rice and other plants so far.
