self-cloning definition
self-cloning means the removal of nucleic acid sequences from a cell of an organism which may or may not be followed by reinsertion of all or part of that nucleic acid (or a synthetic equivalent), whether or not altered by enzymic or mechanical processes, into cells of the same species or into cells of phylogenetically closely related species which can exchange genetic material by homologous recombination; and
self-cloning means the removal of nucleic acid from a cell or organism, followed by the re- insertion of all or part of that nucleic acid — with or without further enzymic, chemical or mechanical steps — into the same cell type (or cell-line) or into a phylogenetically closely related species which can naturally exchange genetic material with the donor species;
