Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) is the movement of genetic material from one organism to another. In this article, we will discuss what HGT is, how it is used in research, how to detect it and the ...

One of the most well-studied examples of lateral gene transfer (LGT) between microbe and animal is the transfer of DNA from an intracellular Wolbachia endosymbiont to its Drosophila host.Bacterial DNA ...

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) refers to the transfer of genes between organisms in a manner other than traditional reproduction. Also termed lateral gene transfer (LGT), it contrasts with ...

Grafting two transgenic plants triggers lateral gene transfer at the graft site but does not elicit long-distance transport of DNA into the scion or root of the graft. Initially Ralph Bock's ...

I just think the lesson is that DNA really gets around. —Nancy Moran, University of Texas at Austin If Li had been studying bacteria, finding this kind of lateral or horizontal gene transfer (HGT) ...

The U.S. Navy has announced a new schedule and board sponsor for the biannual Lateral Transfer and Redesignation Board. The board will now be conducted in February and August with Bureau of Naval ...
