If a human–animal cybrid embryo were genotyped based solely on its mtDNA content, then genetically it would be deemed animal, especially if it were homoplasmic with only recipient oocyte mtDNA.

Researchers have discovered that a single molecule, Wnt3, coordinates a two-step process of cell polarity orientation that enables jellyfish embryos to develop around a central axis, shedding light on ...
