Reproductive Cloning: Can Cloning Harm the Clone? [PDF]
Since the creation of Dolly the sheep was reported in February 1997, the possibility of a cloned child has elicited powerful declarations of condemnation. A widely held view is that cloning a human being would be immoral and ought to be prohibited by legislation.

We investigate several classes of state-dependent quantum cloners for three-level systems. These cloners optimally duplicate some of the four maximally-conjugate bases with an equal fidelity, thereby extending the phase-covariant qubit cloner to qutrits.

Each finite graph on n vertices determines a special ( n − 1) -fold covering graph that we call the clone cover . Several equivalent definitions and basic properties about this remarkable construction are presented. In particular, we show that for k ≥ 2 , the clone cover of a k -connected graph is k -connected, the clone cover of a ...

'There is perhaps no phenomenon in the field of biology that touches so many fundamental questions as the union of the germ cells in the act of fertilisation; in the supreme event all the strands of webs of two lives are gathered in one knot, from which they diverge again and are rewoven in a new individual life history.

Birth of clones of the world’s first cloned dog [PDF]
AbstractAnimal cloning has gained popularity as a method to produce genetically identical animals or superior animals for research or industrial uses. However, the long-standing question of whether a cloned animal undergoes an accelerated aging process is yet to be answered. As a step towards answering this question, we compared longevity and health of

Pluripotency deficit in clones overcome by clone–clone aggregation: epigenetic complementation? [PDF]
Abnormal gene expression patterns in somatic cell clones and their attrition in utero are commonly considered a consequence of errors in nuclear reprogramming. We observe that mouse clone blastocysts have less than half the normal cell number, and that higher cell number correlates with correct expression of Oct4, a gene essential for peri-implantation

Cloning, Clones and Clonal Disease
In the past, cloning has been familiar to plant breeders because many plants can be easily reproduced in this way, bypassing the lengthy process of cross-fertilisation. Recently, the concept of cloning has become popular in human biology and medicine on two accounts.
