Bacteria transfer DNA with a bacteriophage.
There are three main forms of horizontal transmission used to spread genes between members of the same or different species: conjugation (bacteria-to-bacteria transfer), transduction (viral-mediated transfer), and transformation (free DNA transfer).

It is called Transduction.
Transduction is the type of genetic recombination in bacteria that involves DNA transfer by viruses. In this process, bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria) transfer bacterial DNA from one bacterium to another.
GENERALIZED TRANSDUCTION- Is the type of transduction in which a fragment of DNA from the degraded chromosome of an infected bacteria cell is accidentally incorporated into a new phage particle during viral replication and thereby transfered to another bacterial cell. specialized- is the type in which the bacterial DNA transduced is limited to one or a few genes lying adjacent to a pro-phage that are accidentally included when the phage is excised from the bacterial chromosome.
Transduction
In the process of conjugation bacteria transfers its genetic material to an other bacteria by using sex pilli not any virus.

Bacteria can achieve genetic variation through three main processes: transformation, conjugation, and transduction. In transformation, bacteria uptake free DNA from their environment, which can originate from lysed cells. Conjugation involves the direct transfer of DNA between two bacterial cells through a physical connection called a pilus. Transduction occurs when bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria) transfer genetic material from one bacterium to another, facilitating the exchange of genes. These mechanisms enhance genetic diversity and adaptability in bacterial populations.
Conjugation is a mechanisms used by bacteria to move genes between cells by exchanging a circular extrachromosomal DNA with each other. Transduction is when viruses that infect bacteria accidentally take some bacterial genes with them into a new cell that htey infect (kinda like STDs). Transformation is when a bacteria gets DNA from its environment.
They would be more likely to be harmed by common bacteria.
