Good coverage of the potential of gene editing to contribute to sustainable agriculture and highlighting the regulatory disparity between GE crops and GE animals. @appg_agscience theguardian.com/science/2024/n…
Sadly this new crop research facility at @JamesHuttonInst may not be able to deliver the benefits of more advanced and precise breeding technologies to Scotland's farmers due to @scotgov 's anti-science stance on GM and genome editing. #doublestandards farminguk.com/news/scotland-…
"People say that farming needs to go back to the way it was in the 1940s, but my argument is clear: farming like we did in the 1940s wouldn’t fill the societal needs of today." fwi.co.uk/events/ofc/ofc…
UK scientist urges Govt to press ahead with gene editing in farmed animals "Gene editing offers much greater potential to address previously intractable disease challenges, and to accelerate environmental improvements, such as a lower carbon footprint." scienceforsustainableagriculture.com/helensang
In Vietnam, adoption of insect resistant GM corn has increased more than six-fold from 4% of the corn area in 2015 to 26.5% in 2022, as farmers experience the benefits of reduced pesticide use and 30% higher yields. nongnghiep.vn/tri-thuc-nong-…
Farm leaders warn that Scotland risks being left behind on gene editing, leaving Scottish growers at a competitive disadvantage without access to higher yielding, more climate resilient and resource efficient crop varieties. farminguk.com/news/scotland-…
My neighbour and I have fallen into a “bring each other’s bin back in” relationship. Whoever gets there first, brings in both bins. One of the most special bonds British people can have.
"These announcements signal to potential investors that Britain is ‘open for business’ when it comes to using new technologies such as gene editing in agriculture, so boosting prospects for genetic innovation to deliver benefits for people and the planet." scienceforsustainableagriculture.com/ssa-news-26
Happy to share our recent #preprint on @researchsquare: Super-fast generation of all-female grass carp via transplantation of female germline stem cell into zebrafish researchsquare.com/article/rs-516…
Our paper is out in @molecology! We found that domestication and genetic origin impact gene expression at hatch in Atlantic salmon and that hybridization affects transcriptional regulation. Interestingly, life stage also changes the direction and magnitude of these differences.
🚨New 🧬 paper alert 🚨 When @LiYangzhen visited us @roslininstitute last year we worked together on imputation and QTL detection in Fugu 🐡 with a new 20K SNP array they developed. Excited to see this first paper with @robertmuk @Diego___RS published 👉🏻 authors.elsevier.com/c/1jq1vACeYJOU5
"Conventional breeding could take 8 years of back crosses to create blast-resistant rice. With gene editing, by pinpointing the specific changes to be made, it only takes one year." Vandals Destroyed Italy’s First Gene-Edited Crop, But There’s Good News forbes.com/sites/juergene…
Chromosome-scale genome assembly of the tropical #abalone (Haliotis asinina) Great work by @Roy_Barkan 🧬 🧬 🧬 @iracooke @lausally @watsonsueann @MarineOmics nature.com/articles/s4159…
"As more and more countries adopt science-based regulations for gene editing, we cannot afford to be left behind in enabling British science to fulfil its promise of fighting climate change, contributing to food security and delivering nature recovery." cambridgeindependent.co.uk/business/don-t…
Where are we at in the field of salmonid genomics and where do we need to go? The commentary article for the special issue "Advances in Salmonid Genetics", summarizing 22 articles from the SI, is out now! with @NarumShawn @MarenWellenreut doi.org/10.1111/eva.13…
UK scientists welcome first concrete signal from the newly elected Labour Government of plans to push ahead with implementation of the Precision Breeding Act in England. scienceforsustainableagriculture.com/ssa-news-25
