contents Sterilization of Channel Catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) via Overexpression of bax Gene Regulated by a Tet-off System in the Primordial Germ Cells.

However, these developments are useless from a commercialization standpoint without extremely efficient confinement. Transgenic sterilization has the potential to accomplish 100% reproductive confinement and avoid genetic exchange between transgenic or domestic genotypes and wild populations. The present study reports a novel sterilization method for channel catfish by overexpressing the pro-apoptosis gene bax, specifically in the primordial germ cells, to inhibit their proliferation. Three transgenic constructs were electroporated into channel catfish one-cell embryos, including Nanos-nanos, Nanos-dnd, and Dazl-vasa. Transgene integration, gonad development, and sex ratio were evaluated in P and F generations. The transgene was successfully integrated into the channel catfish genome, with variable rates depending on each construct. Mosaicism of transgene integration was widely evident in the P fish, as expected. All three constructs showed similar efficacy for sterilizing P male channel catfish, with approximately half of all males showing little to no gonadal development, resulting in a significantly lower (p
