Transgenic fish. The future 1 of fish with novel genes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Making transgenic lines of vertebrates represents a rather new technology. While transgenic fish have been introduced in the laboratory since the n id eighties, it has also becolne a reality in aquaculture since the early nineties. There are many reasons why people want to create genetically modified organisms (GMO) and there are many strategies to nlake "fish with novel genes". As such it has generated high expectations in Society and directed the interests of researchers, but has also raised concerns about environmental and consumer safety, and generated numerous ethical and legal discussions.

Induction of tetraploidy in transgenic tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) using physical shocks
The induction of tetraploidy by means of cold, heat and multiple heat shock treatments was investigated on male fish from a growth-enhanced transgenic tilapia C118 line, crossed with wild type females. After the development a new multiple heat shock protocol (two heat treatments at 41oC in 60 and 80 min. after fertilization for 5 min. per each), chromosome and X-gal in situ staining assays demo...

Transgenic fish have been produced that have improved growth, disease resistance, survival in cold and body composition, have altered color, that can act as bioindicators for estrogenic pollutants and that can produce pharmaceutical proteins. The largest amount of transgenic research has focused on growth hormone transfer. A relatively small amount of research has focused on enhancing disease r...
متن کاملIdentification of the first Transgenic Aquatic Animal in Iran by PCR-Based Method and Protein Analysis
In the recent years, there is evidence of training a red type of zebrafish which differs from wild-type in body color. There is not any document how it reaches to the ornamental fish farms of Iran but at first, it was a doubt it belongs to a morphotype or genetic modification (GM). First of all, a set primer was designed to validate zebrafish species. Mitochondrial 16srDNA was selected and ampl...
