Applications and status of gene drive in plants
Bruce A. Hay
TL;DR
Gene drive in plants can help address issues from globalization and climate change, but plant biology makes it challenging, and self-limiting methods offer a safer approach.
Contribution
The paper discusses the application of gene drive in plants and proposes self-limiting methods as a controlled alternative.
Findings
Gene drive can be used to modify or suppress plant populations for addressing global challenges.
Plant biology features complicate the use of gene drive.
Self-limiting methods offer a controlled and reversible solution.
Abstract
Gene drive can modify or suppress plant populations, offering solutions to challenges associated with globalization and climate change. However, common features of plant biology complicate its application. Self-limiting methods provide a controlled, reversible path forward.
