Powerful gene editing approach boosts rotifers in pantheon of laboratory animals
A female Brachionus manjavacas rotifer, as magnified under a microscope. This rotifer is 350 µm long; about the size of a grain of sand. The hair-like cilia at the top of the individual are used for swimming and feeding. By injecting the CRISPR system components into the female’s large reproductive system, the targeted genes should
