UM-Bot Posted December 29, 2013 #1 Share Posted December 29, 2013 A science team in South China achieved the feat by injecting the animals with the DNA of a jellyfish. The team from the Agricultural University in Guangdong Province created a litter of 10 glow-in-the-dark piglets that glow green when placed under a black fluorescent light. The feat is similar to that achieved by another team in Turkey who recently produced glow-in-the-dark rabbits through the same method and who are now working on doing the same thing with sheep.

seeder Posted December 29, 2013 #6 Share Posted December 29, 2013 In the article it says they only glow under black lights...BUT... plants have been created that glow with no black light, ie: They just GLOW!! The following article suggests they can be used for streetlights!! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-2321865/Glow-dark-plants-developed-replace-street-lamps.html 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
