clonally
From one ancestor
Clonally means by way of cloning—reproduction that produces genetically identical copies.
The term appears most often in biology: cells divide clonally, tumors expand clonally, plants propagate clonally through cuttings or runners.
The bacteria spread clonally throughout the sample.
Strawberries reproduce clonally via stolons.
