The present invention provides for a system comprising (a) first polynucleotide encoding a first promoter operatively linked to an open reading frame (ORF) encoding an endoribonuclease, or an enzymatic active fragment thereof, which cleaves a cognition sequence (cog), and (b) a second polynucleotide encoding a second promoter operatively linked to a nucleotide sequence encoding (i) a cog linked to a coding sequence of interest (COI), (ii) a cog linked to the 3' end of a first COI and the 5&#x2032; end of a second COI, or (iii) a cog locating within a LS (or targeting sequence) linked to a COI.

Translation control tool for plants

The present invention provides methods and compositions for targeting enzymes involved in lignin or xylan biosynthesis using genome editing nucleases to specifically reduce content in a desired plant cell type(s).
