Stage: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide methods for site-specifically modifying a plant chromosomal DNA using a plant rhabdovirus vector, and to provide viral vector compositions.SOLUTION: A step of systemically infecting a plant using a plant rhabdovirus vector, expressing a sequence-specific nuclease, targeting an infected plant genomic target site with a sequence-specific nuclease, and cleaving the target site; and a step of completing a site-specific editing on the target sites by a DNA repair mechanism of the plant are comprised. This method for site-specifically editing a plant genome target DNA does not require the introduction of selective marker genes. By delivering a sequence-specific nuclease using a plant rhabdovirus expression vector, not only can the editing efficiency for the target site be improved, but also a non-transgenic, and stably inheritable edited plant can be obtained.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 (Grant)
