“…Animal cloning by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), which avoids the sexual reproduction pathway, offers the opportunity to obtain monogenetic offspring derived not only from adult animals of high genetic merit but also from genetically transformed (transgenic) specimens. Over the last 24 years, intra- and interspecies cloning via SCNT resulted in a fairly large number of transgenic and non-transgenic offspring, not only in various species or infertile interspecific hybrids (bastards) of domesticated animals, such as - cattle [ 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 ];
- goats [ 6 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ];
- sheep [ 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ];
- pigs [ 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 ];
- equids—domestic horses [ 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 ] and mules [ 47 ];
- water buffaloes—Chinese swamp buffaloes [ 48 , 49 ] and Indian river/riverine buffaloes [ 50 , ...
