Bacterial Transformation Buffers Environmental Fluctuations through the Reversible Integration of Mobile Genetic Elements
ABSTRACT Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) promotes the spread of genes within bacterial communities. Among the HGT mechanisms, natural transformation stands out as being encoded by the bacterial core genome. Natural transformation is often viewed as a way to acquire new genes and to generate genetic m...
