Staphylococcal phages and pathogenicity islands drive plasmid evolution

Many plasmids can be transferred between bacterial cells via conjugation; however, the mechanisms underlying the transfer of non-conjugative plasmids are less clear. Here, Humphrey et al. show that staphylococcal phages and a family of pathogenicity islands (PICIs) can mediate intra- and inter-speci...
