Had some delicious seedless, thornless gene 🧬edited blackberries from #pairwise in Colombia 🇨🇴 they have more compact architecture that allows higher yields - they were delicious 😋

The FDA has approved the use of these gene-edited pigs for the U.S. market.

Interesting paper - the environmental footprint of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) -negative pigs on North American farms is 4–6% lower than industry average, and 9–17% lower than PRRSV-positive farms (Not sure why there is cat ⬇️🐷) https://t.co/jaoDNgDs0y

Speaking today at the First International Meeting on Genome 🧬 Editing in Aquaculture in beautiful Puerto Varas - lots of great research being done in disease resistance in salmon - let’s hope these disease resistant alleles can be introduced into commercial breeding programs
