Knockout of floral and meiosis genes using CRISPR/Cas9 produces male‐sterility in Eucalyptus without impacts on vegetative growth

Abstract Eucalyptus spp. are widely cultivated for the production of pulp, energy, essential oils, and as ornamentals. However, their dispersal from plantings, especially when grown as an exotic, can cause ecological disruptions. To provide new tools for prevention of sexual dispersal by pollen as w...
