摘 要:In recent years there has been a veritable explosion in the use of genome editors to create sitespecific changes,both in vitro and in vivo,to the genomes of a multitude of species for both basic research and ***,which form a vital component of most societies,are no *** selective breeding has been hugely successful at enhancing some production traits,the rate of progress is often slow and is limited to variants that exist within the breeding *** editing provides the potential to move traits between breeds,in a single generation,with no impact on existing productivity or to develop de novo phenotypes that tackle intractable issues such as *** such,genome editors provide huge potential for ongoing livestock development programs in light of increased demand and disease *** review will highlight some of the more notable agricultural applications of this technology in livestock.
