“It will inevitably have an impact on gene-editing research in Scotland if the current position is held in the longer term – simply because if the market is starting to develop in England, then it’s inevitable that the research will follow as well.” holyrood.com/inside-politic…

Publication today of the Precision Breeding Act implementing rules for England is a truly historic moment for plant science, with exciting opportunities ahead to deliver benefits for the food chain, consumers and the environment, writes Mario Caccamo scienceforsustainableagriculture.com/mariocaccamo7

"Gene editing can accelerate the production and yield of neglected crops, making them more attractive to farmers. Work on more than 60 crop species, including cassava, millet and banana, as well as many types of pulses and vegetables, is already underway." chinadaily.com.cn/a/202503/18/WS…

"Imagine mangoes growing in the deserts of Rajasthan, wheat that thrives in extreme heat and provides higher nutrition, or rice that resists drought and pests without pesticides. CRISPR can make these a reality." economictimes.indiatimes.com/opinion/et-com…

Good news! ScotGov lifts blanket opposition to gene editing by reaffirming its policy of dynamic alignment with the EU, revealing plans to consult stakeholders later this month on an evidence-based way forward for gene editing in Scottish agriculture.👏👏 thescottishfarmer.co.uk/news/25034289.…
