Kaguya (mouse)

Mouse that had two parents of the same sex

Kaguya was the first bimaternal mouse created in laboratory using two eggs from female parents by Tomohiro Kono and colleagues at Tokyo University of Agriculture as described in a 2004 paper in Nature. This was a hallmark experiment as natural fertilization in mice requires the contribution of an egg from the female parent and a sperm from the male parent.

From Wikipedia

Kaguya was the first bimaternal mouse created in laboratory using two eggs from female parents by Tomohiro Kono and colleagues at Tokyo University of Agriculture as described in a 2004 paper in Nature. This was a hallmark experiment as natural fertilization in mice requires the contribution of an egg from the female parent and a sperm from the male parent. The first bimaternal mouse was named after a Japanese folk tale, in which the Moon-born princess Kaguya (Kaguya-hime) is found as a baby inside a bamboo stalk.
