Research Progress of Gene Editing technology in Pig breeding
Gene editing technology like CRISPR/Cas9 provides unprecedented new tools and methods for pig breeding,which can not only break through the limitations of existing genetic variation,but also greatly shorten the breeding cycle and improve breeding efficiency.This paper mainly introduces the progress of gene editing and its applications in swine breeding,to provide reference for animal researchers,breeders and policy makers and further to promote the application of gene editing technology in swine breeding.
