Genetic Modification of Domestic Animals for Agriculture and Biomedical Applications
Transgenic technology has been applied mainly in the study of gene structure and function in model organisms and gene therapy for human diseases. Transgenic technology has potential for rapidly improving quantity and quality of agricultural products, compared to traditional selection and breeding methods in domestic animals that are time consuming when attempting to alter the desired allele fre...
متن کاملPotential and limitations of genetic manipulation in animals.
Over the last decade, sequencing and characterisation of the mouse genome has been accompanied by unparalleled advances in functional genomics. In the context of drug action, we analyse the strengths and limitations of classical mutagenesis and gene targeting techniques, as well as alternative approaches such as chemical mutagenesis, gene trap, recombineering, transposon-mediated mutagenesis, c...
متن کاملGermline modification of domestic animals.
Genetically-modified domestic animal models are of increasing significance in biomedical research and agriculture. As authentic ES cells derived from domestic animals are not yet available, the prevailing approaches for engineering genetic modifications in those animals are pronuclear microinjection and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT, also known as cloning). Both pronuclear microinjection ...
متن کاملphylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran
in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...
Learning to Allow Temporary Failure: potential benefits, supportive practices and teacher concerns
Current theory and research in the area of motivation indicate that while frequent academic failures are clearly undesirable, temporary failure in challenging academic tasks can have important psychological benefits when followed by successful coping. However, teachers’ responses during our school reform programme suggest that some special education teachers may find it extremely difficult to a...
