CHONGQING

 

Three generations of goats cloned from the embryonic cells of an Angora goat

are on display at the ongoing Chongqing New and High-tech Trade Fair.

 

This is the first time in China that cloned goats are being displayed at a

high-tech trade fair, said Fan Lijun, an official of the Keyuan

Bio-engineering Co which carried out the cloning.

 

The goats, named Lulu, Shanshan and Nana, are third-, fourth- and

fifth-generation clones and are among 45 goats cloned by the company's

chairman of the board, Professor Zhang Yong, from the Northwest China

University of Agriculture, Forestry, Science and Technology.

 

As the three goats are identical, they cannot be easily distinguished. Fan

told visitors that the goat with thicker and longer horns is older.

 

Fan said her company is looking for a Chongqing partner in goat cloning and

embryonic transplanting.
