| Thumbnail | Description & Credit | This schematic illustration shows how a human therapeutic gene is inserted into a deactivated mouse retrovirus. The retrovirus then attaches to and empties its genetic material into a patient's cell (in the laboratory). The therapeutic human gene is integrated into the patient's DNA and replaces the "defective" gene, in the treatment for ADA. See artwork: GR-10. Credit: Jeannie Kelly (artist). | |

Economic History | Bulgaria | When the livestock sector recovers, genetic material and animal feed ration components, perhaps including corn, will also need to be imported. (references) |
Kenya | Three U.S. companies and one local company are actively involved in the importation of dairy cattle genetic material from the U.S. The U.S. companies have reported increasing demand for the U.S. genetics from a value of $23,015 in 1993 to $256,161 in 1997. Though no volume data is available to support the claim, the market potential is encouraging with a growth rate of 5%. This is bound to rise as farmers begin to appreciate the quality of U.S. genetic material. (references) | |
