摘要

Climate change enhances the damaging consequences of abiotic and biotic stressors, leading to severe soil fertility loss and ecosystem degradation worldwide. Leguminous have contributed significantly to replenishing soil nitrogen via symbiotic nitrogen fixation, contributing approximately 15% of nitrogen input, which is crucial for soil health and enhancing crop production. There is an increasing integration of new biotechnological interventions, such as genome editing, including the CRISPR/Cas9 system, and transgenesis, in addition to classical breeding, to make agriculture more resilient. In this review, we examine several elements that influence the genetic transformation system employing Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains in leguminous to make it an ideal vehicle for CRISPR/Cas9 component delivery. The variables investigated in our study included the incubation period, co-cultivation duration, bacterial density, selectable marker, concentration, and growth regulators used. In addition, the selection and efficiency of the explant choice for transformation should be considered in future studies. However, there have been parallel recommendations for the gradual application of selectable markers such as kanamycin.
