Describe a mechanism by which a gene could move from the bacterial genome to a plasmid in the same cell, or vice versa.
Genome sequences show that some pathogenic bacteria contain virulence genes that promote disease next to genes that originally came from bacteriophage. Why does this result suggest horizontal gene transfer, and what would the mechanism of transfer have been?
