Abstract The advent of CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing has expanded the range animals amenable to targeted genetic analysis. This accelerated research in not traditionally studied using molecular genetics. However, studying genes essential for reproduction or survival such remains challenging, as they lack tools that aid analysis traditional model organisms. We recently introduced use distinguishably marked knock-in pairs (DMKPs) a strategy rapid and reliable genotyping species. Here we...
