Expanding the scope of plant genome engineering with Cas12a orthologs and highly multiplexable editing systems

CRISPR-Cas12a is a promising system for targeting AT-rich regions of the genome. Here the authors identify Cas12a orthologs with expanded targeting scope and develop a highly multiplexable editing system in rice.
