Abstract:Sugarcane (Saccharum spp. complex) is a major species of the gramineous family and an economically important crop, which plays an important role in the development of world agricultural economy and the guarantee of sugar supply. One hand, sugarcane is known as a pioneer crop, as it has good resistance or tolerance to abiotic adversity. However, its production and productivity are constrained by various abiotic and biotic stresses, resulting in a serious loss in cane yield and sugar content. On the other hand, sugarcane flowering and fruiting requires strict light and temperature conditions, and hybridization is generally adopted by selecting suitable sites to induce the parents to flower in all countries, together with a photoperiod chamber. Normally, many commercial cultivated varieties generally do not blossom in the process of cultivation, and there is no seed even though they flower in a certain location in some years. In addition, sugarcane is an industrial raw material crop, and its product sucrose is carbohydrate and does not contain protein. Therefore, the safety risk level of transgenic sugarcane is low, second only to non-food crops, such as cotton. Furthermore, sugarcane is an asexually propagated crop, and once excellent transgenic individual plants are obtained, its population can be rapidly expanded by tissue culture. Genetic engineering has become an important means for sugarcane to make up for the defects of traits derived from traditional crossbreeding and to accelerate the process of genetic improvement. Regarding why sugarcane is a suitable species for transgenic improvement, this paper highlighted the achievements of improvement of insect pest resistance and disease resistance, briefly reviewed the improvement of other traits and the work of sugarcane as a bioreactor. Then, we focus on the factors affecting the efficiency of genetic transformation and the expression level of exogenous target genes in sugarcane. Additionally, the progress of gene-editing in sugarcane was reviewed. Finally, the future of transgenic sugarcane was prospected. The present review aims to promote the application of genetic engineering in sugarcane improvement.
