Qinghai Successfully Introduces a New Fish Species from Russia
The new fish species introduced from Russia for trial breeding - the whitefish (Coregonus peled) - will be promoted on a large scale in Qinghai Province. The introduction of this "foreign fish" has not only broken the previously rather monotonous aquaculture pattern in the province, but also moved Qinghai's fisheries one step closer to the international market. In order to make the whitefish breeding and cultivation technology more mature in the province's aquaculture sector, Qinghai Province recently invited Alexander Ivanovich Litvinenko, president of the Research Academy of the Siberian Fisheries of the Russian Federation and academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, to visit Qinghai for inspection and technical analysis, and to provide market information.

Chinese-American biologist successfully breeds double-gene transfer cloned pig
The University of Connecticut in the United States announced recently that renowned Chinese-American biologist Yang Xiangzhong, in cooperation with the scientific research department of Taiwan, China, has bred the world's first double-gene transfer cloned pig carrying human coagulation factor IX and porcine lactoferrin. This research achievement is expected to be used to treat hemophilia. According to Yang Xiangzhong, a professor at the University of Connecticut, this research was conducted under extreme secrecy by his research team in cooperation with the Taiwan Animal Technology Research Institute. The first cloned pig was born on February 15 this year at the Taiwan Animal Research Institute

Chongqing Yurong No. 1 Pig Composite Line Successfully Passes Expert Review
The "Yurong No. 1 Pig Composite Line," independently bred by Chongqing, was recently successfully developed and smoothly passed expert review by the National Livestock and Poultry Breed Approval Committee of the Ministry of Agriculture. According to the Chongqing Municipal Science and Technology Commission, the Chongqing Academy of Animal Sciences utilized the excellent characteristics of a superior local pig breed - the Rongchang pig - combined with the advantages of exotic pig breeds, adopted a three-line composite model, and applied new breeding technologies such as conventional selection along with molecular genetics and information technology. After 9 years of arduous research, they bred a composite line pig with excellent meat quality, strong adaptability, good reproductive performance, moderate lean meat percentage, and strong market competitiveness.

Long-finned koi successfully bred at aquatic improved variety trial farm
In Renhe Village, Bingcun, Meixian, there is a farmer named Qiu Dong. Two years ago, he suffered a natural disaster while growing golden pomelo, and nearly 400,000 yuan of investment was almost completely lost. He then switched to raising grass carp, but an 8-mu pond earned him only about two thousand yuan in a year, unable to make ends meet, and he fell into no small amount of debt, with his finances in dire straits. One day, a fisheries expert appeared and showed him a kind of fry, which brought a turning point in his life. Now, he has become a locally somewhat well-known "fish" farming specialist, with an annual net income of more than 20,000 yuan, and has led three or four neighboring relatively poor villagers to prosper together.

South Korean scientists have successfully bred "biopigs" that produce a cerebral thrombosis (cerebral hemorrhage) treatment drug through their urine. The South Korean Rural Development Administration recently stated: "By injecting the genetic gene for treating cerebral thrombosis (TPA) into pig fertilized eggs, we successfully bred 4 pigs that can excrete cerebral thrombosis treatment substances through their milk and urine." South Korea has become the world's second country after the United States to breed, through genetic modification, animals capable of producing cerebral thrombosis treatment substances. The United States, in 1997, through genetic modification technology,
