HOW TO PLAN AND UNDERTAKE QUANTITATIVE EXPERIMENTS INVESTIGATING GENE TRANSFER IN BACTERIA
Gene transfer in bacteria is a fundamental process that plays a crucial role in bacterial evolution, antibiotic resistance, and biotechnological applications. Undertaking quantitative experiments to investigate gene transfer in bacteria involves careful planning, execution, and analysis. Here is a comprehensive…
STUDY OF GENE TRANSFER BETWEEN BACTERIA CONJUGATION ON SOLID AND LIQUID MEDIA
Conjugation is a mechanism of horizontal gene transfer between bacteria, enabling the transfer of genetic material, such as plasmids, from a donor bacterium to a recipient bacterium. This process plays a significant role in bacterial evolution, antibiotic resistance, and the…
