Theobroma cacao, the source of cocoa, suffers significant losses to a variety pathogens resulting in reduced incomes for millions farmers developing countries. Development disease resistant cacao varieties is an essential strategy combat this threat, but limited by sources genetic resistance and slow generation time tropical tree crop. In study, we present first application genome editing technology using Agrobacterium-mediated transient transformation introduce CRISPR/Cas9 components into leaves cotyledon cells. As proof concept, targeted Non-Expressor Pathogenesis-Related 3 (TcNPR3) gene, suppressor defense response. After demonstrating activity designed single-guide RNAs (sgRNA) vitro, used Agrobacterium system leaf tissue, identified presence deletions ~30% TcNPR3 copies treated tissues. The edited tissue exhibited increased infection with pathogen Phytophthora tropicalis elevated expression downstream genes. Analysis off-target mutagenesis sequences similar sgRNA target sites high-throughput sequencing did not reveal mutations above background error rates. These results confirm function NPR3 as repressor immune demonstrate powerful functional genomics tool cacao.

Genome editing promises giant leaps forward in advancing biotechnology, agriculture, and basic research. The process relies on the use of sequence specific nucleases (SSNs) to make DNA double stranded breaks at user defined genomic loci, which are subsequently repaired by two main repair pathways: non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) homology directed (HDR). NHEJ can result frameshift mutations that often create genetic knockouts. These knockout lines useful for functional reverse studies but also have applications agriculture. HDR has a variety as it be used gene replacement, stacking, creating various fusion proteins. In recent years, transcription activator-like effector clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR) CRISPR associated protein 9 or from Prevotella Francisella 1 emerged preferred SSNs research purposes. Here, we review their plant research, discuss current limitations, predict future directions genome editing.
