Abstract：To understand the global patent landscape and industrial development trends of agricultural animal gene editing technology, in present study, patent bibliometrics were used to analyze patent data in the gene editing technology field from 2015 to 2022. A systematic analysis was conducted, including major research institutions, research teams, research frontiers, and the overview of gene editing technology for different agricultural animal species. The results showed that gene editing technology patents had been on the rise globally over the past 8 years. China ranked first in the world in terms of the number of gene editing technology patents applied and published, but overall, the United States was leading the world in gene editing technology. Particularly in terms of core technology innovation, the quality of papers and patents, top research institutions and teams, transformation of knowledge achievements, and industrialization mechanisms, China still needs to improve further. In China, the number of gene editing technology patents related to agricultural animal breeding was relatively small. However, some related companies had already completed first-round financing at the level of 10 millions. This study provides a systematic analysis of the global industrialization trends of agricultural animal gene editing technology, and provides a reference for China to use gene editing technology to address major problems in agricultural animal breeding.
