Earthworm symbiont Verminephrobacter eiseniae mediates natural transformation within host egg capsules using type IV pili
The dense microbial communities commonly associated with plants and animals should offer many opportunities for horizontal gene transfer through described mechanisms of DNA exchange including natural transformation (NT). However, studies of the significance of NT have focused primarily on pathogens....
