Rice Yellow Mottle Virus resistance by genome editing of the Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica nucleoporin gene OsCPR5.1 but not OsCPR5.2

Y. Arra, F. Auguy, M. Stiebner, S. Cheron, M. M. Wudick, M. Miras, V. Schepler-Luu, S. Cunnac, W. B. Frommer, L. Albar

This study uses CRISPR/Cas9 to edit OsCPR5.1 and OsCPR5.2 in rice to confer resistance to Rice Yellow Mottle Virus, finding that only OsCPR5.1 loss-of-function mutants are resistant.
