Abstract:
Genetic engineering has emerged as a revolutionary tool in the livestock industry, offering tremendous potential to enhance livestock productivity and improve animal health. This review article delves into the various genetic engineering techniques employed in livestock improvement, including selective breeding, transgenesis, and gene editing. We explore how these techniques can be harnessed to enhance productivity traits such as improved growth rates, enhanced feed efficiency, and increased milk and meat production. Furthermore, we investigate the promising role of genetic modifications in conferring disease resistance to livestock, thereby reducing dependency on antibiotics and improving overall animal welfare. While examining the ethical considerations and risks associated with genetic engineering in livestock, we analyze the moral concerns related to animal welfare and address the environmental implications of such practices. A comprehensive overview of the existing regulatory frameworks and public perception surrounding genetically engineered livestock is presented, underscoring the importance of responsible innovation. Additionally, we showcase case studies that illustrate successful applications of genetic engineering in livestock. This review article also acknowledges the challenges and limitations that researchers and stakeholders may encounter while implementing genetic engineering practices in the livestock industry. Finally, we present an outlook on the future perspectives of this transformative technology and its potential to shape the future of livestock.
