Table 3 Average number of distinct QTN edited per generation using genome editing alone or with gene drives of different conversion efficacies
From: Potential of gene drives with genome editing to increase genetic gain in livestock breeding programs
Gene drive conversion efficiency | Average number of distinct QTN edited (95% CI) | |
|---|---|---|
25 Sires edited at 20 QTN each | 5 Sires edited at 100 QTN each | |
Genome editing alone | 61.1 (58.6–63.6) | 203.0 (198.1–207.9) |
0.50 | 60.0 (58.2–61.9) | 184.2 (181.2–187.2) |
0.75 | 59.9 (57.2–62.5) | 180.2 (174.3–186.2) |
1.00 | 59.1 (57.3–61.0) | 172.8 (168.7–177.0) |
