Gene transfer into cells.

There are different way to introduce genetic material into cells.


Transduction:Introduction of Genetic material into bacteria using virus (bacteriophage).


Transformation:Introduction of Genetic material into bacteria(prokaryots) from environment.


Conjugation:It is the transfer of genetic material between bacterial cells by direct cell-to-cell contact or by a bridge-like connection between two cells.


Transfection:Introduction of Genetic material into Eukaryota by physical or biological mechanism.
