British researchers created a disease resistance pig

Scientists who created Dolly the sheep clone bring GM food a step closer by producing a pig that is immune to disease – The Daily Telegraph wrote.

The piglet, known only as 'Pig 26', was created through a process called 'gene editing' at Edinburgh's Roslin Institute four months ago. It was engineered to have a gene making it immune to African swine fever which can kill European pigs within 24 hours of infection.
The technique is faster and more efficient than existing methods, and also does not involve the use of antibiotic-resistance genes. (MTI)
