Breaking Ground in Agriculture: Gene-Edited Chickens Resistant to Avian Influenza
Since Crick and Watson discovered the double helix structure of DNA in 1953, gene editing technology has made rapid progress. Today, scientists have been able to make precise modifications to the genome of organisms through gene editing tools such as CRISPR-Cas9. The potential of this technology is huge, bringing revolutionary changes to areas such as disease treatment, agricultural production, and biological research. Recently, the Roslin Institute in Edinburgh, UK, famous for creating the world’s first cloned sheep, Dolly, has made a new breakthrough. “Dolly Labs” used gene editing technology to successfully breed a chicken that is resistant to avian influenza. This breakthrough result once again proves the huge value of…
