摘要： In the face of a growing global population, climate change, and limited arable land, the need for resilient, highyielding crops is pressing. Traditional breeding methods have struggled to meet these demands, but CRISPR/ Cas9-based genome editing offers a groundbreaking solution. This article provides an in-depth overview of CRISPR/Cas9's role in enhancing crop traits to ensure global food security. By harnessing modern sequencing technologies, researchers can precisely edit genes in crop plants especially major crops like Triticum aestivum, Oryza sativa, Zea mays, and Solanum tuberosum etc., imparting traits such as disease resistance and stress tolerance. The technology is pivotal to producing next-generation crops (NGC's) capable of adapting to changing climates and delivering higher yields and product quality. Ethical and regulatory considerations are important, but responsible governance of genome editing promises significant advancements in agriculture. This review highlights CRISPR/Cas9's transformative potential in crop improvement and its pivotal role in shaping the future of food production.
