Abstract
Nuclear transfer (NT) has the potential to produce large number of identical progeny and would greatly benefit ongoing research efforts, Cloned animals produced by NT, however, may not be genetically identical to the donor cell. In NT procedures, nucleus genes originate from donor cell, and mitochondrial genes originate from recipient oocytes. (omitted)
