Abstract Cytosine base editors (CBEs) and adenine base editors (ABEs) enable precise C-to-T and A-to-G edits. Recently, ABE8e, derived from TadA-8e, enhances A-to-G edits in mammalian cells and plants. Interestingly, TadA-8e can also be evolved to confer C-to-T editing. This study compares engineered CBEs derived from TadA-8e in rice and tomato cells, identifying TadCBEa, TadCBEd, and TadCBEd_V106W as efficient CBEs with high purity and a narrow editing window. A dual base editor, TadDE, promotes simultaneous C-to-T and A-to-G editing. Multiplexed base editing with TadCBEa and TadDE is demonstrated in transgenic rice, with no off-target effects detected by whole genome and transcriptome sequencing, indicating high specificity. Finally, two crop engineering applications using TadDE are shown: introducing herbicide resistance alleles in OsALS and creating synonymous mutations in OsSPL14 to resist OsMIR156-mediated degradation. Together, this study presents TadA-8e derived CBEs and a dual base editor as valuable additions to the plant editing toolbox. |
