A method comprising:
- determining one or more genetic characteristics of one or more related spermatid genomes;
- and
- selecting one or more of the one or more related spermatid genomes based at least partially on the one or more genetic characteristics of one or more of the one or more related spermatid genomes.

An apparatus comprising:
- one or more sourcing units including one or more first sources of one or more related spermatid genomes;
- one or more monitoring units operable to detect one or more genetic characteristics of one or more of the one or more related spermatid genomes;
- and
- one or more controller units operable to select one or more of the one or more related spermatid genomes at least partially based on one or more of the genetic characteristics of one or more of the one or more related spermatid genomes.
