1 Cloning

2 Definition of Cloning  The process of making a clone,

3 Methods of Plant Cloning Asexual reproduction to plants to produce duplicates from one plant specimen

4 Procedures of Animal Cloning Nuclear Transfer (Adult DNA cloning) : DNA from an egg is and with the DNA from a cell removed from an adult animal. Artificial Twinning (Embryo cloning) : One or more cells are from a fertilized embryo and encouraged to into one or more duplicate embryos.

5 Nuclear Transfer Cloning - Steps  Unfertilized Eggs Collected from a donor, and nuclei removed  From 2 nd Animal removed a sample cell.  Nuclei from sample cell is transplanted into the egg cell.  Resulting cell is cultured and a few began to divide.  These early embryos implanted into a surrogate mother.

6 Nuclear Transfer

7 Nuclear Transfer: Dolly The Sheep

8 Application of Cloning Technology Produce many crop at short times Relive the Produce high quality Help the sterile couples Replace the chemical reaction

9 Important incident of Animal Cloning  1952 : Frog ( Artificial Twinning)  1997 : Sheep (Nuclear Transfer)- Dolly  1998 : Cow (Nuclear Transfer)-Elsie  2002 : Cat (Nuclear Transfer)-Copy Cat  2004 : Human embryo (Nuclear Transfer)  2005 : Dog (Nuclear Transfer)-Heidi Ledford

12 Cloning of endangered animal  Noah the Gaur, an endangered species in 2000  Organization: Advanced Cell Technology, USA Photo from Advanced Cell Technology (www.advancedcell.com)

13 Cloning of endangered animal  Cloning of woolly Mammoth  Extinct 10,000 years ago From Mingpao 8/8/2003

14 Cloning of transgenic animal  Cloning of a cow containing mad cow disease resistant gene  In Shangdong, China From Mingpao 28/4/2006

15 Concerns in animal cloning  Technology complicated   Overweighing of calves at birth   Breeders may want to

16 Dolly gave birth to a female lamb in 1998, but Dolly later died of premature aging in 2003.

17 Health of clones From Ming Pao 27-Mar-2001

18 Company for cloning pets  Genetic Savings & Clone – established in 2000, produced the cloned cat, CC in 2001  Delivered the first commercially cloned cat, Little Nicky in 2004 for US$50,000  Company closed in 2006  A new company BioArts International was established for cloning dogs
