Development of transgenic farm animals will allow more flexibility in direct genetic manipulation of livestock. Gene transfer is a relatively rapid way of altering the genome of domestic livestock.

"If, as in our experiments, the genetic change also reduces the offspring's ability to survive, a transgenic animal could bring a wild population to extinction in 40 generations." Extinction results ...

The money was not spent to make mice transgendered. Transgenic animals actually include a variety of species such as fish, poultry, rabbits, pigs, sheep, goats, cattle, apart from mice.

Scientists created transgenic mice with woolly mammoth–like traits. But does it really bring us closer to bringing back woolly mammoths?

TASS/. A clandestine lab found in the US state of California held about 1,000 transgenic animals and biological materials with at least 20 pathogens, including COVID-19, said Chief of Russia’s ...
