Question
Chapter 18.3, Problem 11SAQ
Summary Introduction
A foreign DNA is introduced into a cell by viral vector or virus are called as transduction. It does not need any physical contact between the cell receiving and cell donating DNA. It is also function as a common tool used to introduce a foreign gene stably into a genome of host cells by the molecular biologists.
