Adjusting the amylose content of semi-glutinous japonica rice by genome editing of uORF6 in the Wx gene

Amylose content, the key determinant of rice eating and cooking quality, is regulated primarily by the Waxy (Wx) gene. We adjusted the amylose content and transparency of semi-glutinous japonica rice carrying the Wxmp allele by genome editing of upstream open reading frame 6 (uORF6) of Wx.
