Das Ziel von Genome Editing in der Pflanzenzucht sind Pflanzen mit verbesserten Merkmalen. Dieser Workshop gibt Schülerinnen und Schülern einen Einblick ins Genome Editing mittels der Genschere CRISPR/ Cas9. Am Beispiel der Tomate (Solanum lycopersicum) und einem Online-Tool identifizieren sie selber künstliche RNA-Sequenzen (sgRNA), die für die Cas9-Reaktion eingesetzt werden können. Das Einführen des Cas9/ sgRNA-Systems in die ...
