Researchers at Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology used a gene-editing tool known as CRISPR-Cas9 to tweak a muscle-regulating gene called myostatin in the lamb during its ...

Researchers at Sher-e-Kashmir University have successfully produced India's first gene-edited sheep, marking a significant advancement in the field of agricultural sciences.

In a quiet corner of Kashmir, science has made history. A lamb was born, not just any lamb, but India’s first gene-edited sheep — a small animal carrying a giant step forward for Indian research.

The edited sheep contains no foreign DNA, distinguishing it from transgenic organisms and paving the way for regulatory approval under India's evolving biotech policy framework.
