AL01–AL02: unrelated albino fibroblasts; SA01–SA10: unrelated sable fibroblasts; ND: not determined; FCC1: ferret cumulus cells unrelated to cloned animals.

a

Lilly and Libby–Sable coat-color ferrets cloned from cumulus cells (Fig. 1).

b

Informative markers distinguishing somatic-cell-derived clones from their surrogate mother. Analysis of 13 unrelated DNAs from Albino and Sable coat-color ferrets is shown in Table S1.

c

Clone–Live-born male ferret cloned from fibroblast cells and died 3 days after birth.
