archenemy Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Taiwan is not claiming a world first. Others have bred partially fluorescent pigs before. But the researchers insist the three pigs they have produced are better. Â Better for what? Good thing they aren't wasting time with crazy shit like stem cell stuff, organ transplant compatibility, better bacon, whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catbirdseat Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Not a waste of time. It proves a concept. Once you can reproducibly introduce one gene (and more importantly, express it) you can introduce any other gene you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catbirdseat Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Sometimes two genes are inserted at the same time. One gene produces some desired product or characteristic. The other is there just to demonstrate that the other one also must be there. Care to elaborate Pax? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selectable markers? i.e. toxin-resistance genes to simplify identification of transgenic clones? If so, yes that is a very common practice. Â I'm feeling pretty all of the sudden. Â Gotta go.
