        abstract = {Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is known as the most important 
vegetable crop that is widely cultivated throughout the world. 
Improvements of the growth, development, and productivity have 
become core strategies for the sustainable development of tomato in 
many countries. Here, we performed an intensive summary of recent 
applications of genome editing in customizing the growth habits and 
fruit quality in tomato plants. First, the advantages of genome editing, 
particularly CRISPR/Cas systems, were introduced. We then
summarized all up-to-date studies related to the genome editing?based functional characterization of genes of interest in tomato with 
the aim of designing the growth habits and enhancing the fruit 
quality. Finally, we discussed the potential applications of this 
promising tool in tomato breeding programs in Vietnam. Taken 
together, our review has provided a wide view for further studies 
towards improving the growth, development, and productivity of 
tomato in Vietnam.}
