1·In other experiments, they discovered that "knocking" out the gene that produces SP in transgenic mice lowered their chances of acquiring the condition.
在其他的实验里,他们发现在转基因白鼠中,剔除那些制造“SP”物质的基因会降低他们得到那种疾病的概率。
2·Monsanto, a hard-nosed pioneer of transgenic crops, is donating its drought-resistant technology to a coalition called Water Efficient Maize for Africa, for example.
比如,孟山都公司-顽固的转基因作物的先驱-正把其抗旱技术转让给名为非洲节水玉米的联合公司。
3·Besides the low efficiency of cloning - just 1.7 per cent of embryos came to term - another challenge to creating transgenic dogs is controlling where in the nuclear DNA a foreign gene lands.
除了低克隆率-只有1.7%的胚胎能存活到最后阶段-创造转基因狗还有一个挑战即如何控制外部基因在核d NA中的植入位置。
4·And while some headlines have touted the discovery as a way to get human breast milk out of the udders of dairy cows, this kind of transgenic milk is still far more cow-like than human-like.
虽然一些头条报道将此发现吹捧为从牛乳中获取人类奶水的方式,这种转基因奶更大意义上还是牛奶,而非人奶。
5·These transgenic goats, created by Randy Lewis at the University of Wyoming , produce about a half ounce of silk from every quart of milk--the equivalent of a hundred spiders.
怀俄明大学的兰迪·刘易斯创造出的这些转基因山羊产的奶,1夸脱能制成大约0.5盎司丝,这相当于100只蜘蛛产的丝。
