Abstract
Genome editing is unravelling its benefits in wide areas of scientific development and understanding. The advances of genome editing from ZFNs and TALLENs to CRISPRs defines its wide applicability. Reproduction is the fundamental process by which all organisms maintain their generations. CRISPR/Cas9, a new versatile genome editing tool has been recently tamed to correct several disease causing genetic mutations, spreading its arms to improve reproductive health. It not only edits harmful genetic mutations but is also applied to control the spread of parasitic diseases such as malaria by introducing selfish genetic elements, propagated through generations and population via reproduction. These applications led us to review the recent developments of CRISPRs use in reproductive biology.
