Dug up a refurbished #GeneAmp9700 as part of a deep dive into the genetics of #FayoumiChickens to selectively breed for birds with alleles associated with #DiseaseResitance. Hasheput is not impressed with me, but she is a lot calmer than her mom. We're gonna need her.

Rice Yellow Mottle Virus resistance by genome editing of the Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica nucleoporin gene OsCPR5.1 but not OsCPR5.2 Rice yellow mottle virus (RYMV) causes one of the most devastating rice diseases in Africa. Management of RYMV is challenging. Genetic resistance provides the most effective and environment-friendly ....
