Generation of a novel growth-enhanced and reduced environmental impact transgenic pig strain
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT In pig production, insufficient feed digestion causes excessive nutrients such as phosphorus and nitrogen, which are then released to the environment. To address the issue of environmental emissions, we have established transgenic pigs harboring a single-copy quad-cistronic transgene and simultaneously expressing three microbial enzymes, β-glucanase, xylanase, and phytase in the salivary glands. All the transgenic enzymes were successfully expressed, and the digestion of non-starch polysaccharides (NSPs) and phytate in the feedstuff was enhanced. Fecal nitrogen and phosphate outputs were reduced by 23%–46%, and growth rate improved by 23.4% (gilts) and 24.4% (boars) when the pigs were fed on a corn and soybean-based diet and high-NSP diet. The transgenic pigs showed a 11.5%– 14.5% improvement in feed conversion rate compared to the age-matched wild-type littermates. These findings indicate that transgenic pigs are promising resources for improving feed efficiency and reducing nutrient emissions to the environment.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
