Renucleation

Renucleation technology enables scientists to transfer a fertilized nucleus of an ovum ( with diploid number 2n) into unfertilized one after destroying its nucleus using radiation.[1]

Process

When the fertilized ovum is transplanted to the mother's ovary it develops into a normal individual which has gained its characters from the parents (source of the 2n nucleus).
