| Method |
To document gene transfer frequencies,
researchers subjected wild-type strains or natural communities
from a range of environments to treatment
with donor strain GTAs (Gene Transfer Agent) and documented the rates of
GTA-mediated gene transfer of kanamycin resistance. The gene transfer frequencies
were calculated by dividing the number of antibiotic resistant cells by the total number of
recipient cells in the culture (S6), both measured as colony-forming units (cfu)/ml. |
