Transfer of Haemophilus influenzae chromosomal genes by cell-to-cell contact.

Abstract

A low-frequency exchange of chromosomal markers was observed in matings of Haemophilus influenzae. Transfer did not appear to be due to classical transformation or to be plasmid mediated, and chromosomal gene transfer differed in several respects from plasmid transfer by conjugation.
