Abstract
Genetic modification of spermatogonial stem cells followed by their transplantation to homologous recipients has shown immense potential to complement the current methods being used for generating transgenic farm animals. Using this technique, the time duration required to generate transgenic founder animals can be reduced at least by half, which would significantly reduce the generation interval. However, significant efforts need to be made to improve the efficiency of transgenic offspring production for its successful implementation in large-scale production of therapeutic proteins for human use.
