The current scenario and future perspectives of transgenic oilseed mustard by CRISPR-Cas9.

Scientists are working on genetically modifying oilseed mustard to improve its yield and resistance to insects and herbicides. They are using CRISPR-Cas9 tools to introduce new traits, but face challenges in the transformation process. This study provides an overview of the progress and potential solutions, which may improve oilseed mustard crop plants.
