CRISPR Turns a Little-Known Fruit Into a Big Farming Opportunity

Scientists are using CRISPR to fast-track the domestication of a wild fruit. For roughly 10,000 years, farming communities have improved crops by saving seeds from plants that produced better harvests. By repeatedly choosing varieties with desirable traits such as larger size, better flavor, and gre…
