As far as I can see, the biggest possible benefit to conservation efforts is that you might be able to create chimeric diploid embryos(two parthenogenetic cells, injected with different sperm) and then ?maybe? trick the the cell division into creating fraternal twins from what would otherwise be either a singleton…

Although a couple that each had 1 copy of the recessive for a genetic disease might be able to use one parent reproduction to prevent it from manifesting in the next generation while not requiring genetic material from outside the partnership.

Although in your 1:10 hypothetical, current science would either be using haploid embryos(all successes would be genetic descendants of the woman) or would be harvesting her eggs, ennucleating the cells and replacing the nucleus with ‘George(clone).’ Trying to isolate the ‘X’ from a male cell and fusing it with an…

For the first time ever, scientists have produced live mice without a fertilized egg cell....
