A “Herd Full” of your Favorite Sow

June 21, 2023

Discovering Trans Ova Genetics has been one of the greatest blessings. I remember a phone conversation with a friend before this all, and saying something along the lines of, “Man, she’s so good, I wish I could have a whole herd of her!” Little did I know at the time, that dream had the opportunity to become reality. A boar can produce hundreds of litters a year, for sows, only two. We all know that great sow is where the secret sauce is at. Best sow…. 2 litters. Less than best sow…. 2 litters. NOW, imagine a world where we…

Increasing the Genetic Influence of Historic Genetics

June 21, 2023

I have the privilege to have a historic Kunkune sow standing at my farm. Her name is Manuhiri and she was born in New Zealand and imported to the U.S. in 2010. While, Manuhiri is the Granddam to the entire Haunene bloodline in the United States, she only produced 2 litters herself so, the potential of her genetic influence is yet unfulfilled. I’m so excited that Trans Ova’s genetic cloning can dramatically multiply her impact. At 13 years of age, she is spectacular in her conformation and soundness and she moves like a young sow. She is large and as…

How Long has Trans Ova Genetics Been Cloning Livestock?

March 30, 2023

By Diane Broek In the late 1990’s, Trans Ova Genetics entered into a relationship with Genzyme Transgenics for the production of cloned, transgenic cattle that carried the human gene for Human Serum Albumin.  In the course of that project, our first little cloned heifer calf was born at our Sioux Center, Iowa facility.  Her name was Gudren.  She was named after one of the researchers on the project.  Gudren was a happy, healthy little Holstein heifer, born in 1998, just two years after Dolly the Sheep was born in Scotland in 1996.  Happy 25th Anniversary to Gudren and the Trans Ova…
