Nuclear transfer from embryonic cell (jan 1, 1987 – dec 31, 1987)
Description:
Using methods very similar to those used by Willadsen on sheep, First, Prather, and Eyestone produced two cloned calves. Their names were Fusion and Copy. This experiment added cows to the list of mammals that could be cloned by nuclear transfer. Still, mammalian cloning was limited to using embryonic cells as nuclear donors.Added to timeline:
