Abstract
A research progress in the gene accounting for the important breeding trait in crops allows to know that the useful trait has been generated by a mutation in the original gene. Recently, a genome editing technology has been developed and there has been a growing interest to apply it to create useful mutations in crops. Here, the tomato as a case study, I introduce an example of crop design research using the genome editing technology and issues towards implementation of the products.
