Abstract
Rice is considered as a major food crop in the World and provides 20% of the world’s dietary energy. Development of abiotic stress tolerance rice genotypes including salt tolerance is very much necessary for sustainable rice production under climate change scenario. Ground salt is one of the most important barriers to rice production worldwide, especially in coastal areas. Rice has benefited from new breeding technologies, such as the CRISPR-led evolution, CRISPR-Cas, and basic editors, have recently been used in rice to achieve successful genome sequencing. In this way we can focus on the editing of genome for salt tolerance rice and find out the best source based on its conventional and advanced method to improve its resistant effect along with its productivity which can be widespread all over the sites.
