The act of two bacteria joining and exchanging DNA?
It is called bacterial conjugation, this is not sexual reproduction, since no exchange of gamete occurs.
Why is conjugation considered a form of sexual reproduction?
I am studying Microbiology in school currently. According to my understanding, conjugation is not a form sexual reproduction, instead, it is asexual reproduction. Reason being, conjugation only involves transfer of genetic information which is the same as sexual reproduction which involves the fusion of garmetes (sex cells)/equal exchange of genetic material. Hope my answer is helpful. But now, I have a question. Why is conjugation considered a form reproduction when it does not even produce a new offspring?
Is genetic material is transferred through a pilus in binary fission?
