In rice, we induced multiple herbicide-resistance point mutations by multiplexed editing using herbicide selection, while in tomato we generated marker-free plants with homozygous heritable DNA substitutions, demonstrating the feasibility of base editing for crop improvement UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1e_qHU33uJQAVBRBB-QOQ-9czDDygr4W6/view?usp=drivesdk ER -
