1. Conjugation — involves transfer of genetic material from one bacterium to another (direct cell-to-cell).
2. Transformation — involves uptake of scraps/naked DNA from the environment.
3. Transduction — uses a bacteriophage (virus) to transfer genetic material.
4. Conjugation — uses a sex pilus to transmit genetic information.
5. Plasmid — a plasmid can introduce new genetic material (e.g., resistance genes) into a bacterium.
