The article analysis the study which shows that cloning genes into a foreign host, Escherichia coli, using plasmid vectors is akin to horizontal gene transfer (HGT) by conjugation. The analysis revealed that the genes that were marked as unclonable in Escherichia coli are predicted to be transfer...

Since the 1990s, results coming in from molecular phylogenetics necessitate us to recognize that Horizontal Gene Transfer (HGT) occurs massively across all three domains of life. Nonetheless, many of the mechanisms whereby genes can become transferred laterally have been known from the early twentieth...
We discuss the potential interactions among travel (dispersal and gene flow), bacterial "sex" (mainly as horizontal gene transfer), and food (metabolic plasticity and responses to nutrient availability) in shaping microbial communities. With regard to our work at a unique desert oasis, the Cuatro...
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is defined as the intragenerational sharing of genetic material. HGT represents one of the most important evolutionary forces in bacteria as it enables rapid adaptation to changing environmental pressures through the acquisition of new traits such as virulence, metabolic pa...
However, from the standpoint of the encoded products of transferred genes, a surprising picture is emerging that could be loosely described as "a funny thing happened on the way back to the organelle." The prerequisite for endosymbiotic gene transfer is protein-import machinery in the two ...

[62] Their reproduction is both rapid and profuse. The combination of a high mutation rate and a horizontal gene transfer[63] ability makes them highly adaptable, and able to survive in new environments, including outer space.[64] They form an essential part of the planetary ecosystem. ...
