Daily Genetic Analysis to Identify Avian Flu Susceptibility
Japanese researchers recently developed a genetic analysis technique to identify whether chickens are susceptible to bird flu. This new technology will help control the spread of bird flu among chickens. According to the "Japan Economic News," reported on the 28th, researchers from the Japan Institute of Agricultural Bioresources and professors Watanabe Watanabe of Hokkaido University and others under the funding of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, conducted a chicken "Mx" gene research and found that There are 10 subtle differences in gene base pairs. Researchers have found that chickens can be divided into two types that are susceptible to infection and not susceptible to bird flu, depending on the base pairing of the gene. If genetic tests are conducted to raise chickens that are not susceptible to bird flu, then the further spread of bird flu can be controlled, thereby reducing the risk of bird flu mutating into a new type of influenza among humans.
