Explain sexual reproduction in bacteria?
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 4 years, 4 months ago

Sexual Reproduction in Bacteria is usually carried out in three ways:

  1. Transformation – In this process, the DNA from the capsulated bacteria is transferred into a non-capsulated bacteria.
  2. Transduction – In this process, the DNA is transferred from one bacterial cell into another bacterial cell with the help of a bacteriophage. This process is known to occur in several bacterial species such as Escherichia, Micrococcus, Salmonella, etc.
  3. Conjugation – It is a process in which the genetic material of a bacterial cell of a particular strain is transferred from a donor or male into that of another bacterial cell recipient or female of a different strain. The donor cells are known to possess a *** factor or F factor and the recipient cell does not have this factor and hence it is described as F- strain.
