UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D010957 Plasmids Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D003227 Conjugation, Genetic A parasexual process in BACTERIA; ALGAE; FUNGI; and ciliate EUKARYOTA for achieving exchange of chromosome material during fusion of two cells. In bacteria, this is a uni-directional transfer of genetic material; in protozoa it is a bi-directional exchange. In algae and fungi, it is a form of sexual reproduction, with the union of male and female gametes. Bacterial Conjugation,Conjugation, Bacterial,Genetic Conjugation
D006094 Gram-Positive Bacteria Bacteria which retain the crystal violet stain when treated by Gram's method. Gram Positive Bacteria
D001413 Bacillus thuringiensis A species of gram-positive bacteria which may be pathogenic for certain insects. It is used for the biological control of the Gypsy moth. Bacilan,Dipel,Thuricide
