Conjugation..
Microbiology B.Sc Sem IV
Paper CC-8 (Microbial Genetics)
Topic : Conjugation in Bacteria
Conjugation differs from transformation in the fact that in the former physical contact is established between two different strains through a conjugation tube. The genetic material from the donor cell (male) is transferred to the recipient (female) cell. There are special appendages present on bacterial cell surface which are called sex pilus or F pilus which forms the conjugation tube.
