Thesis Abstract

Livestock breeding plays a crucial role in meeting the growing demand for animal products while ensuring sustainability and animal welfare. This project aims to explore the potential of gene editing technologies, such as CRISPR-Cas9, in livestock breeding. The study will investigate the application of gene editing techniques to enhance desirable traits in livestock, such as disease resistance, productivity, and environmental adaptability. The project will also assess the ethical, regulatory, and societal implications of gene editing in livestock breeding. The findings will contribute to the understanding of the opportunities and challenges associated with gene editing technologies in the livestock industry.
