Recombination suppression can be circumvented through CRISPR/Cas9 with dual gRNAs, regardless of sequence homology or the genetic background of the species hybrid. This method is expected to be applicable to other situations in which recombination is suppressed in interspecies or intrapopulation hybrids.
