    Global Regulatory Outlook of CRISPRized Plants summarizes CRISPR/Cas systems and applications for precise editing of plant genomes and discusses global regulatory frameworks for CRISPR edited crops. While CRISPR technology has become a routine, cheap, and efficient method to generate edited crops with superior traits, how these crops are regulated determines the future of this technology. Understanding the current state of regulation, concerns, issues, and foundations for future decisions are key in determining how this technology is used going forward. This important summary will be vital to the successful commercialization of CRISPR technology and biosafety concerns associated with this technology. The book highlights regulatory classification of CRISPR modifications such as SDN1, SDN2 and SDN3 and their global regulation and discusses the social, ethical, governance, and policy issues related to CRISPR edited crops.
