Traditionally, genetics is the study of vertical transmission of genes from parents to offspring. Since complete genomes have become available, it has become clear that, in addition to vertical inheritance, there is a substantial rate of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) from unrelated individuals, at...
Lateral gene transfer (LGT) is the transfer of genetic material from one organism to another by means other than transmission from parents to offspring. From:Mutation Research/Fundamental and Molecular Mechanisms of Mutagenesis,2014 About this page ...

We demonstrated that maternal developmental history does indeed affect transfer of offspring circadian genes, but the timing of stress was important. Avian mothers who experienced stress during the first 2 weeks of post-natal life increased maternally deposited transcript levels of two core circadian ...
Cytological studeies showed that the offspring differed markedly from the parents in that they were largely variated in chromosome number and beharior, vesulting in a mixoploid rate of 69. 84% , abmormal chromosome pairing, chromosome lagging, multipolar and unsynchronous division, The above ...
Any movement of genetic information, other than by vertical transmission from parents to their offspring via conventional reproduction, is defined as horizontal or lateral gene transfer (HGT or LGT). Although LGT occurs frequently among members of the Archaea and Bacteria, there are only a few prob...
scientists have been able to reveal the profound regulatory mechanism of somatic cell nuclear transfer.122However, since the breakthroughs in hiPSC generation technologies (involving transduction or transfection of pluripotent genes), nuclear transfer technology is rarely used for the reprogramming of...
All living species contain genetic information that was once shared by their common ancestor. DNA is being inherited through generations by vertical transmission (VT) from parents to offspring and from ancestor to descendant species. This process was con
parents. We specifically asked whether the high offspring dependence is caused by (1) a low starvation tolerance, (2) a low ability to self-feed or (3) the need to obtain parental oral fluids. Finally, we determined how much care (i.e. duration of care) they require to be able to ...
Model of the known mode of transfer of (a) the clc-element and (b) Tn4371 between the initial host cell and a recipient cell. Black arrows indicate relevant genes encoding (potential) integrase genes (int-B13, int-Tn4371), catabolic genes (clcRABD, bph) and transfer genes (trb). The...
