CRISPR/Cas-9 induced knockout of myostatin gene improves growth and disease resistance in channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus)
2022-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, is the most produced aquaculture species in the United States, although production levels have decreased since their peak in 2003. Myostatin (mstn) regulates skeletal muscle growth and has been identified as an important gene for increasing body weight in aquaculture species. In this study, the effects of CRISPR/Cas9 knockout of the mstn gene in channel catfish were investigat...
