Start-up finds 'holy grail' in female prawns, shrimp
US-Israeli start-up Enzootic has developed a technology to produce commercially available all-female populations of giant river prawns without the use of chemicals, hormones, or genetic engineering. This technology can be applied to any crustacean. Enzootics method involves using a single injection of parental cells to produce females with WW chromosomes, which are then crossed with normal males to produce all-female offspring. The crustacean aquaculture market is growing rapidly, and Enzootic aims to increase revenues and attract new customers with its technology. The company recently won a start-up competition at the International AgriVest Conference.
