The presently disclosed subject matter relates to using a haploid inducing line (whether existing or created) and transforming the haploid line so that it encodes cellular machinery capable of editing genes. The transformed haploid inducing line is used as a parent in a cross between two plants. During pollination, the parental gametes fuse to form an embryo; and the gene editing machinery is also delivered to the embryo at this time. During embryonic development, one set of parental chromosomes are lost, and the gene editing machinery operates on the remaining set of chromosomes. Thus, at least one haploid progeny with edited genes is produced from the cross.
目前公开的主题涉及使用单倍体诱导系(无论是现有的还是已创建的),并对单倍体诱导系进行转化,使其编码能够编辑
基因的细胞机器。转化后的单倍体诱导系在两株植物的杂交中用作亲本。在授粉过程中,亲本配子融合形成胚胎;此时,
基因编辑机器也被输送到胚胎中。在胚胎发育过程中,亲本的一组染色体丢失,
基因编辑机制在剩余的一组染色体上运行。因此,杂交后至少会产生一个带有编辑
基因的单倍体后代。
