Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats CRISPR/Cas9 technology evolved from a type II bacterial immune system develop in 2013 This system employs RNA-guided nuclease, CRISPR associated (Cas9) to induce double-strand breaks. The Cas9-mediated breaks are repaired by cellular DNA repair mechanisms and mediate gene/genome modifications. The system has the ability to detect specific sequences of letters within the genetic code and to cut DNA at a specific point. Simultaneously with other sequence-specific nucleases, CRISPR/ Cas9 have already breach the boundaries and made genetic engineering much more versatile, efficient and easy also it has been reported to have increased rice grain yield up to 25-30 %, and increased tomato fruits size, branching architecture, and overall plant shape. CRISPR/ Cas also mediated virus resistance in many agricultural crops. In this article, we reviewed the history of the CRISPR/Cas9 system invention and its genome-editing mechanism. We also described the most recent innovation of the CRISPR/Cas9 technology, particularly the broad applications of modified Cas9 variants, and discuss the potential of this system for targeted genome editing and modification for crop improvement.
