#KnowledgeBit: The #Zebrafish, a popular #Aquarium fish, is an important and widely used vertebrate #Model #Organism in scientific research, for example in drug development, in particular pre-clinical development.

It is also notable for its regenerative abilities, and has been modified by researchers to produce many #Transgenic (genetically modified organisms) strains.

Large-scale #transgenic screening identifies ZmCRK5A (a Ca2+-independent calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK)-related kinase) as a master regulator of #drought tolerance in #maize without #yield penalties.

Do you like #SciFi? Long ago, I began this short form called "Hope for a New Home." It tells of #Sam, a #transgenic human, who leads their lost comrades to a new home.

I HAD TO LOOK UP "TRANSGENIC;" BUT ONLY A TOTAL SIMPLETON OR A RAVING TACOHEAD WOULD GET IT CROSSED WITH "TRANSGENDER"

“#Transgenic mice, not '#transgender mice', are mice whose DNA has been modified–genes have been added or removed–so that scientists can use them as models to study the impact of genes on #health & #disease. Still, #Trump claimed that the #Biden admin was spending millions to ‘make mice transgender’.…

“#Agriculture Secy #BrookeRollins praised dipshit billionaire #ElonMusk for canceling the study of ‘transgender’ mice, which never happened.”

There is little doubt that the #OSG and his minions have deliberately confused the terms #transgenic and #transgender in reference to cancelled funding to hide their cackhanded approach. But one wonders is the damage done in terms of cementing a perception of waste and fraud?

I can't take it anymore. This is on the official #whitehouse site. They really think they're on to something big. This endless stupidity hurts so much even on the other side of the Atlantic. They are even don't try to hide it in some way. You #maga Dumpfbacken! #Tansgender is not #transgenic and only the word #gender doesn't mean it has anything to do with transgender.
