Scientists have demonstrated an intriguing new variation on the CRISPR gene-editing system, which involves fixing a mutation on one chromosome by copying a healthy version from the other.

Chromosome mutation promoted such dominant genes resembles, in many respects, those associated with MR gene or P factor inDrosophila and gene-control elements in maize.
