Abstract
Editing the watermelon EPSPS gene using a prime editing platform with visible markers created a non-transgenic glyphosate-resistant line. These robust heterozygous mutants tolerate field-level herbicide doses without growth penalties, serving as ideal parental lines for crop breeding.
This targeted modification markedly improved rice eating and cooking quality while maintaining the levels of total starch, total protein, and key agronomic traits.

Multiplex CRISPR editing of prolamin genes and phenotype-based screening revealed that reducing prolamin content in rice can increase lysine content and digestibility, improve taste. PROLM25 and PROLM26 are key genes for reducing prolamin content, and knocking out these two genes can achieve the same effect.

BIGS is an integrated genomic selection platform for Brassica napus that combines standardized genomic and phenotypic resources with DeepVAE-based phenotype prediction and model interpretation. The platform supports genomic prediction and candidate locus prioritization, providing a practical resource for rapeseed genetics and breeding.
