Highly efficient generation of knock-in transgenic medaka by CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome engineering

Abstract Background Medaka (Oryzias latipes) is a popular animal model used in vertebrate genetic analysis. Recently, an efficient (~ 30%) knock-in system via non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) was established in zebrafish using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. If the same technique were applicable in medaka,...
