Modify genome of an organism

Lily is an economically important plant, with leaves and bulbs consisting of overlapping scales, large ornamental flowers and a very large genome. Although it is recognized that flowers and bulb scales are modified leaves, very little is known about the genetic control and biochemical differentiation underlying lily organogenesis and development.

Transgenerational plasticity occurs when the environmental experience of an organism modifies the growth and development of its progeny. Leaf damage in Mimulus guttatus exhibits transgenerational plasticity mediated through differential expression of hundreds of genes. The epigenetic mechanisms that facilitate this response have yet to be described.

Genome editing is a technique in which changes are made in the DNA of any organism. A nuclease promotes breaks in the DNA at a specific sequence which is repaired by several mechanisms. It is one of the efficient technologies which enable us to change and edit genome of any organism precisely and accurately. Multiple genome editing technologies have been employed, including zinc finger nucleases, mega nucleases, clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) along with Cas9 protein and transcription activator-like effector nucleases to modify genome of an organism.
