Gene cloning occurs:

1.  when a phage transfers bacterial DNA from one bacterium to another.
2.  when a bacterium takes up DNA from the surrounding fluid.
3.  when a bacterium carrying a recombinant plasmid reproduces, thus allowing for the production of multiple copies of the recombinant plasmid. 
4.  when DNA is produced from an RNA template.
