Finally, we recommend community resource management and discuss the technical challenges key to more efficient genome editing in cichlids, especially for HDR. Ending with a discussion of the evo-devo research avenues that would be opened up by these advances 🤩

At the genome editing workshop, it became clear that despite commonalities, there was a diversity of approaches.

We synthesised all these options and highlighted the technical bottlenecks that require attention. Incl. lots of tips from editing strategies to breeding schemes!

Excited to say our review of genome editing in cichlid fishes, focusing on CRISPR/Cas9 tech, is now published in @RSocPublishing #OpenBiology! Link here: royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...
