self-cloning

self-cloning
Any system in which inappropriate cell types or organisms are eliminated because they possess some character that allows them to die or to remove themselves from the system. Thus a transfected cell with genetic material including a drug resistance marker will be self-cloning in the presence of the drug and non-transfected cells will die.
