« In Pieces: The Segmented Genome | Main | Borgs in Archaea »
Following Janie’s Monday post, we thought of this question:
Why do bacteria – think Agrobacterium, Streptomyces, Borrelia among others – not care at all if they have linear and circular chromosomes and episomes (plasmids, prophages) side-by-side in one cell?
Do you want to respond to this TQ? We would be happy about it! Please do so on Mastodon or on Bluesky.
