Novel transgenic pigs with enhanced growth and reduced environmental impact

Novel transgenic pigs with enhanced growth and reduced environmental impact

In pig production, inefficient feed digestion causes excessive nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen to be released to the environment. To address the issue of environmental emissions, we established transgenic pigs harboring a single-copy quad-cistronic transgene and simultaneously expressing t...
