Mosaic Plasmids

Mosaic Plasmids is a type of bacterial plasmid characterized by a modular genetic structure composed of distinct functional regions acquired from diverse evolutionary origins through horizontal gene transfer, recombination, and gene shuffling, thereby enabling adaptation, dissemination of antibiotic resistance, and functional diversification within microbial populations.
