Accelerated growth performance and stable germ-line transmission in androgenetically derived homozygous transgenic mud loach, Misgurnus mizolepis

Three stable lines of fast growing isogenic homozygous transgenic mud loach M. mizolepis have been generated by inducing interspecific androgenesis between heterozygous transgenic mud loach sperm and UV-irradiated common carp (Cyprinus carpio) eggs. The androgenetic homozygous transgenics stably tra...

Description
Summary:Three stable lines of fast growing isogenic homozygous transgenic mud loach M. mizolepis have been generated by inducing interspecific androgenesis between heterozygous transgenic mud loach sperm and UV-irradiated common carp (Cyprinus carpio) eggs. The androgenetic homozygous transgenics stably transmitted the transgene, responsible for the accelerated growth, to progenies of all the three transgenic lines at 100% frequency.
