A variety of insect pests pose a serious threat to global cotton production. Among these, pink bollworm (PBW) and whiteflies are the most devastating, resulting in substantial yield losses and increased pesticide use. Conventional insect-resistance strategies, which primarily rely on single Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)...

Transgene-free gene-editing has transformed the genomic landscape of crops by enabling targeted, precise, and predictable genetic outcomes without integrating any foreign DNA into the host genome. It has significantly reduced production time and costs, and the regulatory burden for transgene-free gene-edited crops, whi...
