This invention discloses a genetic transformation and gene editing method applicable to multiple sesquiterpene species, belonging to the field of plant genetic transformation and gene editing technology. The method uses the cotyledonary nodes of sterile seedlings of the sesquiterpene genus as explants, and introduces an optimized pScEF1α-Cas9 gene editing transformation vector using Agrobacterium infection. Regenerated plants are obtained through recovery culture, selection culture, and rooting culture. The vector contains four gene expression units: pScEF1α:Cas9, pGmU6:sgRNA, pGmUBI:DsRed2, and pCaMV35S:HygR. In vivo screening is further performed using the DsRed2 fluorescent reporter gene, and the gene-edited plants are identified by molecular detection. This method is applicable to common sesquiterpene, stem-nodled sesquiterpene, and spiny sesquiterpene, and has advantages such as strong species versatility, high transformation efficiency, short cycle, visualized screening, and high positive rate, providing efficient technical support for gene function research and genetic improvement of sesquiterpene species.

This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of strawberry plant named ‘SB_17_119-070’. This new strawberry plant named ‘SB_17_119-070’ is primarily adapted to the growing conditions of West Central Florida, and is primarily characterized by achenes set slightly below the surface of the fruit; vigorous plant habit; very high marketable yield; early time of first flower and fruit; and very large berry size.
