New breeding techniques are emerging rapidly from advances in genomic research, for application in crop

  • improvement. They enable precise, targeted, reliable

changes in the genome (and, thus, are different from genetically modified organisms (GMOs), produced previously) and have significant potential for the sustainable intensification of agriculture and food security … European Academies’ Science Advisory Council, 2015

For several of the techniques, the resultant plant product is free from genes foreign to the species and would not be distinguishable from the product generated by conventional breeding techniques. This calls into question what is meant by genetic modification and raises issues for the modernization of regulatory frameworks. New plant breeding techniques

Cisgenesis & Intragenesis New plant breeding techniques

4/20

12

cisgenesis and intragenesis are the restriction of transgenesis to DNA fragments from the species itself or from a cross-compatible species. In the case of cisgenesis, the inserted genes, associated introns and regulatory elements are contiguous and

  • unchanged. In the case of intragenesis, the inserted DNA

can be a new combination of DNA fragments from the species itself or from a cross-compatible species. Both approaches aim to confer a new property to the modified plant

Targeted mutagenesis/Zinc finger nuclease (ZFN) New plant breeding techniques

6/20

15

ZFNs are proteins which have been custom-designed to cut at specific deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)

  • sequences. They consist of a “zinc finger” domain

(recognising specific DNA sequences in the genome of the plant) and a nuclease that cuts double stranded DNA. The rationale for the development of ZFN technology for plant breeding is the creation of a tool that allows the introduction of site-specific mutations in the plant genome or the site-specific integration of genes.

Transient introduction of recombinant DNA /Oligonucleotide directed mutagenesis (ODM) New plant breeding techniques

8/20

ODM is based on the use of oligonucleotides for the induction of targeted mutations in the plant genome, usually of one or a few adjacent nucleotides. The genetic changes that can be obtained using ODM include the introduction

  • f

a new mutation (replacement of one or a few base pairs), the reversal of an existing mutation or the induction of short deletions.

RNA-induced DNA methylation gene silencing

RNA-dependent DNA methylation (RdDM) allows breeders to produce plants that do not contain foreign DNA sequences and in which no changes or mutations are made in the nucleotide sequence but in which gene expression is modified due to epigenetics. RdDM induces the transcriptional gene silencing (TGS) of targeted genes via the methylation of promoter sequences.

Reverse breeding New plant breeding techniques

12/20

24

Reverse breeding is a method in which the order of events leading to the production of a hybrid plant variety is reversed. It facilitates the production of homozygous parental lines that,

  • nce

hybridised, reconstitute the genetic composition of an elite heterozygous plant, without the need for backcrossing and selection. The reverse breeding technique makes use of transgenesis to suppress meiotic recombination. In subsequent steps, only non-transgenic plants are selected.

Grafting non-GM scion onto GM rootstock New plant breeding techniques

14/20

27

Grafting is a method whereby the above ground vegetative component of one plant (also known as the scion), is attached to a rooted lower component (also known as the rootstock) of another plant to produce a chimeric

  • rganism

with improved cultivation

  • characteristics. Transgenesis, cisgenesis and a range of
  • ther techniques can be used to transform the rootstock

and/or scion. If a GM scion is grafted onto a non-GM rootstock, then stems, leaves, flowers, seeds and fruits will be transgenic

Synthetic Genomics New plant breeding techniques

16/20

29

Synthetic genomics has been defined as “the engineering of biological components and systems that do not exist in nature and the re-engineering of existing biological elements; it is determined on the intentional design of artificial biological systems, rather than on the understanding of natural biology.” (Synbiology, 2006).

Thanks to the technological level reached by genetic engineering and the current knowledge regarding complete genomes sequences, large functional DNA molecules can now be ynthesised efficiently and quickly without using any natural template.

sections of the DNA sequence… New plant breeding techniques

Genome editing techniques/CRISPR/Cas

The CRISPR-Cas9 system consists of two key molecules that introduce a change (mutation) into the DNA.

  • 1. an enzyme called Cas9. This acts as a pair of

‘molecular scissors’ that can cut the two strands of DNA at a specific location in the genome so that bits

  • f DNA can then be added or removed.
  • 2. a piece of RNA called guide RNA (gRNA) located

within a longer RNA scaffold. The scaffold part binds to DNA and the pre-designed sequence ‘guides’ Cas9 to the right part of the genome. This makes sure that the Cas9 enzyme cuts at the right point in the genome.

Herbicide-tolerant oilseed rape

German authorities have said that they would not consider products created by gene editing as GM but rather as products of conventional breeding, but that this judgement would change if the European Commission decides otherwise.

Potato with reduced bruising, browning and reduced propensity to generate acrylamide

This variant, by lowering the level of the amino acid asparagine and of reducing sugars, also has reduced ability to generate the potentially carcinogenic metabolite acrylamide at high temperatures

Applications of genome editing

A recent literature survey reviews research in major crops (barley, maize, rice, soybean, sweet orange, tomato, wheat) and notes whether the assessment of side-effects (induced off-target mutations) was attempted.

(Araki and Ishii, 2015)

Among the recent advances in genome editing is the development of mildew-resistant bread wheat and a maize line containing lower levels of phytate

(Jones, 2015).
