Impact of Essential Genes on the Success of Genome Editing Experiments Generating 3,313 New Genetically Engineered Mouse Lines
Abstract The International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium (IMPC) systematically produces and phenotypes mouse lines with presumptive null mutations to provide insight into gene function. The IMPC now uses the programmable RNA-guided nuclease Cas9 for its increased capacity and flexibility to efficiently generate null alleles in the C57BL/6N strain.
Opinion: USDA’s FCIC Insurance Board has Unique Opportunity to Help Livestock Producers
It’s a challenging time for agriculture. Trade wars are brewing. Prices are down. Interest rates are going up. Producers are worried about their bottom- line. We often blame Congress. But they deserve enormous credit for recently making a change to the crop insurance program that will be looked back upon, for livestock and dairy producers, as every bit as consequential or more than Farm Bill passage.

Teamwork can improve virtually any endeavor, from partnering with a neighbor by exchanging butchered meat for hay to feed the rest of the herd or simply sharing a ride to save on gas. The result is usually savings and efficiency. At USDA, that notion is taken to another level with public-private partnerships that improve economic stability for producers, the financial sector, and a nation that leans heavily on the shoulders of its farmers and ranchers.
Expanding Insurance Availability Benefits More Producers
Each year the nation’s farmers and ranchers confront tough business decisions, adverse weather, and harvesting challenges – striving to balance seasonal planning, as well as long-term planning for future generations. We recognize that producers’ needs shift over time, and the Risk Management Agency (RMA) continues to listen to producers who share their stories and concerns.
