Dolly was the first "success" .. consider it more like the first run of game consoles .. more recalls
![]() The primary downside to this is the lack of biodiversity in fields. We had problems with it in the past (corn and potato blights most notably). 1 disease that targets the clone's would wipe out the entire crop / herd. As far as I am concerned, cloning is more a research exercise. Using cloning methods to isolate and reproduce specific genes is clearly the best result of the research. Then spreading these genes rapidly using these clones will provide benefits for everyone. Milk from a cloned cow? Sure why not. Milk = Milk. Our bodies are not differentiating between the producers genes, unless the product is somehow tainted. |
