Biology Lab Report Genetic Exchange In Prokaryotes
679 wordsThis lab deals with the process of genetic exchange in prokaryotes. There are three main mechanisms of genetic exchange which include transformation, transduction, and conjugation. In transformation, DNA is released from cells in the surrounding environment which is then incorporated into the recipient cells DNA. In transduction, DNA is transferred through a virus to the recipient. In conjugation, genetic exchange occurs through direct contact with another cell and the plasmid is transferred fro...

Mechanisms Of Genetic Exchange Transformation And Conjugation
1,530 wordsIntroduction Genetic exchange had been known to play a role in the evolution and survival of microorganisms. Genes of one bacterium can be exchanged to another through several different ways: conjugation, transformation and transduction. However, the focus of this paper is to further examine the characteristics of conjugation and transformation mechanisms. Transformation was first discovered in 1928 by Frederick Griffith while he was studying pneumococcal infection in mice. 1 In 1944, Avery, Mac...
