Genetic cargo and bacterial species set the rate of vesicle-mediated horizontal gene transfer

Most bacteria release extracellular vesicles (EVs). Recent studies have found these vesicles are capable of gene delivery, however the consequences of vesicle-mediated transfer on the patterns and rates of gene flow within microbial communities remains unclear. Previous studies have not determined t...
