Unearthing Mammoth Genetics and Cloning Possibilities
Exploring the genetic variations between mammoths and elephants using the innovative in situ high C technique to study chromosome structure and gene expression. Researchers delve into the well-preserved DNA of mammoths found in the Siberian tundra, revealing insights on 28 chromosomes, genes linked to wooliness, and the potential for cloning extinct species like Wooly Mammoths. The chapter also touches on Colossal Biosciences' efforts in cloning mammoths and dodos, the extraction of DNA from mummified animals for resurrection, and technological advancements in DNA preservation and personal technology.
