== == transformation ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transformation is the process in which a bacteria takes in DNA from the environment. Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_(genetics) By the way, transduction is the process of DNA transfer by the action of a virus (bacteriophages). The other method of DNA exchange between bacteria is called conjugation, which is the transfer of DNA between bacteria by physical contact.


What is a transformation in bacteria?

In molecular biology, transformation is the genetic alteration of a cell resulting from the direct uptake and incorporation of exogenous genetic material (exogenous DNA) from its surroundings through the cell membrane(s). Transformation occurs naturally in some species of bacteria, but it can also be effected by artificial means in other cells
