Genetic Recombination

Recombination is crucial to this process because it allows genes to be reassorted into diverse combinations. Genetic recombination is the process of combining genetic components from two different origins into a single unit. In prokaryotes, genetic recom…

Microbial Genetics

Genes are the functional units of heredity. They transfer characteristic information from parents to the offspring.
