Genetic Recombination
transformation -- uptake of foreign DNA from the surrounding environment
transduction -- movement of genes from one cell to another -- moved by phages -- incorporated by crossover -- types -- generalized -- specialized
generalized transduction -- lytic cycle accidentally places host DNA into a phage -- DNA is brought to another cell
specialized transduction -- virus leaving lysogenic cycle brings host DNA with it into phage
conjugation -- transfer of DNA between two bacterial cells connected by pili
