Created by unnatural means (9)

I believe the answer is:

synthetic

(Other definitions for synthetic that I've seen before include "substance" , "Artificially made" , "Manufactured, not produced naturally - say material" , "Not genuine, unnatural" , "Artificially produced" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
