Abstract
Somatic cell genetics relies on parasexual events in in vitro cell populations. The analysis of parasexuality can be used to make inferences on the genetic organization of the test material. The approach is general and can be applied currently to any mammalian species, and to any eukaryote with the future development of appropriate cell culture methods. Parasexuality can be defined more specifically in terms of gene transfer and gene loss mechanisms. Gene transfer mechanisms will be emphasized, because they can be more rigorously defined and controlled in experimental terms.
