Impact of predictive selection of LbCas12a CRISPR RNAs upon on‐ and off‐target editing rates in soybean by Linda Rymarquis, Chenxi Wu, Diane Hohorst, Miguel Vega‐Sanchez, Thomas E. Mullen, Vijetha Vemulapalli, Douglas R. Smith

“…Although CRISPR enzymes have been reported to have high sequence‐specificity, careful design of the editing reagents can also reduce unintended edits at highly homologous sites. This work details the first large‐scale study of the heritability of on‐target edits and the rate of edits at off‐target sites in soybean (Glycine max), assaying ~700 T1 plants each resulting from transformation with LbCas12a constructs containing CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs) predicted to be either “unique” with no off‐target sites or “promiscuous” with >10 potential off‐targets in the soybean genome. …”
