The processes are: 1. Conjugation 2. Transformation 3. Transduction.
Transduction is the transfer of DNA from one bacterium to another through the action of viruses. When a virus infects a bacterium, it injects its genetic material into its victim and highjacks the bacterium's machinery for synthesizing DNA, RNA and proteins.
Conjugation is the process by which one bacterium transfers genetic material to another through direct contact. During conjugation, one bacterium serves as the donor of the genetic material, and the other serves as the recipient.
Transformation is the process of introduction of derived DNA fragments from a donor bacteria into a recipient bacteria.
