Genetic gain in the L-Pure scenario and in the L-B cross scenario without gene editing and with editing of 25 SNPs per animal. Left: The L-B cross scenario. Right: The L-Pure scenario. Top: Breeding value for all three traits. Bottom: Evaluation of the three traits with the selection index for dual-purpose production. Gene editing substantially increased meat production but reduced egg production in the L-Pure scenario. Gene editing contributed relatively more genetic gain in the L-Pure scenario than in the L-B cross scenario, but the L-B cross had an overall higher genetic gain
