This is just a thought.! Isn't there a condition that develops when you clone from a clone for many generations?. I believe this is called repplicant fading. The genetic material begins to degrade or differentiate from the original geneoms paturn?. For example a human cell can only divide five to seven times then the cell dies this is primarily due to the gene fraing at its ends. If my observations are true this is a good example as to why cloning is a negative in the long run. we are alwas talking about biodiversity
So I asked this question how is Tc synonymous with biodiversity?.
I think it's important that if one is going to go mucking around the genome that we fully understand the nature of these genetic variations. If 60% of the world depends on bananas for their starch this is an important food crop. This may appear not to relate to our little hobby but in fact it does these tissue culture labs are making plants of an inferior genetic quality. Without regard to the consequences to the world's Food Supply. I know this may sound alarmist but really consider the consequences
