The mechanism of horizontal gene transfer

Horizontal gene transfer occurs mainly through mechanisms such as transformation, transduction, and conjugation. Its occurrence is influenced by the living environment of organisms, interactions between organisms, and genetic characteristics. Horizontal gene transfer promotes genetic diversity, accelerates species evolution, affects the structure and function of microbial communities, and may lead to the spread of antibiotic resistance genes.
