Development of new strategies has always been one of the most important perspectives for molecular biologist. During the last decade, genome editing has received a lot of attention from various researchers across the world. In classical genetics, the gene-modifying activities were carried out selecting genetic sites related to the breeder’s goal. Genome engineering is the field in which the sequence of genomic DNA is designed and modified. Genome editing is a technique for genome engineering that incorporate site-specific modifications into genomic DNA using DNA repair mechanisms. Genomics provides breeders with a new set of tools and techniques that allow the study of the whole genome, and which represents a paradigm shift, by facilitating the direct study of the genotype and its relationship with the phenotype. The present review provides information on basic principles, advantages and disadvantages of genome editing technology. The combining of genome research studies with traditional breeding method is essential for crop improvement method. Gene editing differs from genome editing by dealing with only one gene.
