畜牧业被认为早于农作物的耕作，并且仍然是大多数农业系统的核心组成部分。历史上的育种策略主要是基于视觉观察，将被认为具有更高优点的动物杂交。测序能力的进步，加上成本的降低，使得基因组选择工具能够为育种制度做出重大贡献。应用基因组编辑对家畜基因组进行特定的改变有可能带来额外的好处。
Animal husbandry is believed to predate farming of crops, and remains a core component of most agricultural systems. Historic breeding strategies were based largely on visual observation, crossing animals that were perceived to display enhanced merit. Advances in sequencing capacity coupled with reduced costs have allowed genomic selection tools to deliver significant contribution to breeding regimes. The application of genome editors to make specific changes to livestock genomes has the potential to deliver additional benefits.
