  1. SUMMARY Genome editing technologies like CRISPR/Cas have greatly accelerated the pace of both fundamental research and translational applications in agriculture. However, many plant biologists are functionally limited to creating small, targeted DNA changes or large, random DNA insertions. The ability to efficiently generate large, yet precise, DNA changes will massively accelerate crop breeding cycles, enabling researchers to more efficiently engineer crops amidst a rapidly changing agricultural landscape. This review provides an overview of existing technologies that allow plant biologists to integrate large DNA sequences within a plant host and some associated technical bottlenecks. Additionally, this review explores a selection of emerging techniques in other host systems to inspire tool development in plants.
