Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand the concept of horizontal gene transfer (HGT), which is the movement of genetic material between organisms other than through vertical transmission (from parent to offspring).
Identify the common types of horizontal gene transfer in bacteria: conjugation, transformation, and transduction.
Conjugation involves the direct transfer of DNA from one bacterium to another through a physical connection, often a pilus.
Transformation is the uptake of free DNA from the environment by a bacterium.
Transduction is the process by which bacterial DNA is transferred from one bacterium to another by a virus (bacteriophage).
