Summary Introduction
To predict: The three modes of transfer of genetic material in bacteria.
Introduction: There are three modes of transfer of genetic material that takes place in the bacteria. The experiments conducted by researchers Lederberg and Tatum showed the presence of transforming principle between the bacterial members. The identification of this transforming principle as genetic material was done later on.
