Description

The potential for cloning to improve dissemination of elite genetics has been a goal of livestock scientists for many years. However, efficiency of this technique has remained low compared to other in vitro embryo production methods. One hypothesised method to improve cloning efficiency is to use donor cells that require less reprogramming, as donor cells must be reprogrammed to an embryonic state in order to generate a whole embryo. Somatic cells are the most readily available cell type for ...
