English term or phrase: means of procreating
It is possible that somatic cell nuclear transfer cloning could be the only technique for individuals to create a genetically related child, but in other cases different means of procreating would also be possible. When individuals have alternative means of procreating, cloning might be chosen because it replicates a particular individual's genome.

Mi versión:
Es posible que la clonación por transferencia nuclear pueda ser la única técnica que ayude a los individuos a crear un niño relacionado genéticamente, aunque en otros casos también se podría utilizar diferentes medios para procrear. Al tener los individuos medios alternativos para procrear, se podría escoger la clonación, puesto que replica el genoma de un individuo en especial.

Creo que la segunda oración no acierta el sentido de la original:


Explanation:
Debería ser:
Cuando los individuos tienen medios alternativos de procreación, el de clonación podría escogerse porque reproduce ("replicar" me parece un anglicismo superfluo) el genoma de un individuo especial.
En la primera oración, en vez de "diferentes medios" yo diría "otros medios"
