Evolution of Plasmid Mobility: Origin and Fate of Conjugative and Nonconjugative Plasmids

Conjugation drives the horizontal transfer of adaptive traits across prokaryotes. One-fourth of the plasmids encode the functions necessary to conjugate autonomously, the others being eventually mobilizable by conjugation. To understand the evolution of plasmid mobility, we studied plasmid size, gen...
