Plasmid Detection, Characterization, and Ecology.

Microbiology spectrum - 1 Feb 2015

Smalla Kornelia, Jechalke Sven, Top Eva M

Abstract excerpt

Plasmids are important vehicles for rapid adaptation of bacterial populations to changing environmental conditions. It is thought that to reduce the cost of plasmid carriage, only a fraction of a local population carries plasmids or is permissive to plasmid uptake. Plasmids provide various accessory traits which might be beneficial under particular conditions. The genetic variation generated by plasmid carriage...
