Significance Bovine embryonic stem cells and pluripotent stem cells hold the potential to substantially advance biotechnology and agriculture. We report the establishment of bovine expanded potential stem cells (bEPSCs) from preimplantation embryos of both wild-type and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). EPSCs have broader developmental potential to generate embryonic and extraembryonic cell lineages. bEPSCs express high levels of pluripotency genes, propagate robustly in single cell passaging, are genetically stable, and permit efficient precise gene editing. They differentiate in vitro and in chimeras to both the embryonic and extraembryonic cell lineages. Importantly, genetically modified bEPSCs can be used as donors in SCNT or cloning.
