Diverse mobilization strategies facilitate transfer of non-conjugative mobile genetic elements
Conjugation is a dominant mechanism of horizontal gene transfer and substantially contributes to the plasticity and evolvability of prokaryotic genomes. The impact of conjugation on genetic flux extends well beyond self-transmissible conjugative elements, because non-conjugative ‘mobilizable element...
