An Anthocyanin-Based Visual Reporter System for Genetic Transformation and Genome Editing in Cassava.

Cassava ( Crantz) is a staple crop in tropical and subtropical regions, valued for its high starch content in roots. Effective genetic transformation and genome editing of cassava require efficient screening methods for transgenic and edited plants. In this study, a visual selection marker system using an R2R3-MYB transcription factor anthocyanin 1 gene ( LOC110667474) from a rubber tree ( Müll.
