Aspects of Precision Livestock Farming to Advance the Cattle Industry
Genetic engineering of the myostatin gene in dairy cattle represents a promising approach for sex-specific beef performance enhancement. A possible genetic strategy to enhance beef traits in male dairy calves uses the introduction of a myostatin knockout on the Y chromosome. Using CRISPR/Cas9, this sex-specific edit wo...
