AI Article Synopsis
- Translational research, developed in the 1980s, aims to efficiently apply research findings from one species to improve others, especially in agriculture.* -
- Comparative genomics is a key tool in this process, helping to identify important genes that are shared across different species.* -
- Effective gene editing and phenotyping techniques are essential for validating these genes and selecting the best genetic variations for use in breeding programs.*
Article Abstract
The concept of translational research, which originated in the medical field in the 1980s, consists in improving the efficient transfer of research results obtained in a species (which can be considered as a model or pivot) to all the species for which these results are of interest for its improvement in Agriculture. In this context, comparative genomics is an important tool for translational research, effectively identifying genes controlling common functions between species. Editing and phenotyping tools must thus allow the functional validation of the gene conserved within the species for which the knowledge has been extrapolated, that is to say transferred, and the identification of the best alleles and associated genotypes for exploitation in current breeding programs.
