摘要

Genetically modified crops are pivotal in modern agriculture, particularly focusing on cisgenic, which involves transferring genes from sexually compatible plants to enhance desirable traits while preserving the species' integrity. This review discusses the fundamentals of cisgenics, including its definition, historical context, and distinction from transgenic, highlighting its efficiency in overcoming the limitations of conventional breeding, such as linkage drag. The process ensures that only beneficial genes are introduced, making cisgenic crops safer and more acceptable to the public. Notable applications in fruit crops, including apples, grapes, and strawberries, demonstrate the technique's potential to improve disease resistance and other characteristics. Furthermore, it discusses the regulatory landscape surrounding cisgenics, the limitations posed by this technique, and public perceptions favoring cisgenic methods over transgenic approaches. The review concludes by emphasizing the need for further research in tropical fruit crops and the potential of omics technologies to identify new beneficial traits, anticipating that cisgenics will significantly influence future breeding practices.
