Transgenics and Cloning

Transgenic (Transgenics is not a recognized word) describes an organism whose DNA contains genetic material derived from other species or even from artificial sources.

Cloning is the science of creating clones, which are organisms with identical or nearly identical genetic makeup.

Sites listed here should only be related to the science of creating transgenic animals and animal cloning technologies.

Sites containing information about a business which utilizes these technologies should perhaps search for another category in the Open Directory Project.
