Conjugation

A process where genetic material is transferred directly from one bacterium to another through physical contact, often via a pilus.

2
New cards

J. Lederberg and William Hayes

demonstrated polarity in the conjugation process.

3
New cards

Transduction

A process by which bacterial DNA is transferred from one bacterium to another via a virus (bacteriophage).

4
New cards

Francois Jacob and Elie Wollman

studied the concept of transduction.

5
New cards

They confirmed that the DNA of a bacterial virus was the carrier of its genetic determination in the transduction process.

6
New cards

Seymour Benzer

used transduction of the T4 bacterial virus to fine-map genes.
