Abstract
Hybrid fish are obtained from the combination of nucleus and cytoplasm from two genera of fresh-water teleosts using the technique of nuclear transplantation (i.e. the combination of the nucleus of crucian (Carassius auratus) and the cytoplasm of carp (Cyprinus carpio]. Morphological characteristics of these hybrid fish that have been examined so far indicate that some features such as barbs, pharyngeal teeth, the number of scales along the lateral line, and the number of vertebrae are similar to those of crucian. Some of the hybrid fish grow to normal adult fish.
