Egg cell-specific promoter-controlled CRISPR/Cas9 efficiently generates homozygous mutants for multiple target genes in Arabidopsis in a single generation.

TL;DR: Comparisons of 12 combinations of eight promoters and two terminators found that the efficiency of the egg cell-specific promoter-controlled CRISPR/Cas9 system depended on the presence of a suitable terminator, and the composite promoter generated by fusing two eggcell-specific promoters resulted in much higher efficiency of mutation in the T1 generation compared with the single promoters.

The CRISPR/Cas9 system produces specific and homozygous targeted gene editing in rice in one generation

TL;DR: In this paper, the CRISPR/Cas9-induced gene mutations in Arabidopsis were mostly somatic mutations in the early generation, although some mutations could be stably inherited in later generations.
