Abstract: The invention provides a method for producing a plant cell modified at a targeted site of a double-stranded DNA, including (i) a step of providing a plant cell comprising the double-stranded DNA of interest, (ii) a step of providing a complex in which a nucleic acid sequence-recognizing module that specifically binds to a target nucleotide sequence in the double-stranded DNA and a DNA glycosylase with sufficiently low reactivity with the double-stranded DNA are bound, (iii) a step of placing the complex in a condition under which the plant cell is transfected, (iv) a step of placing the transfected plant cell in a condition that induces modification of the targeted site, without cleaving at least one strand of the double-stranded DNA in the targeted site, and (v) a step of selecting a cell into which the complex has been introduced and/or a cell into which the modification has been introduced.
