  • their chromosome is small
  • they only have one chromosome
  • their chromosome is easy to study
  • their chromosome is easy to modify
  • practically nobody would care if researchers were forced to kill billions of them because they botched the experiment, so nobody would sue

Explain how DNA technology transfer bacterial genes from cell to cell?

I think you must rethink about your question, but still I am giving the answer as I can understand that you are asking about recombinant DNA technology where bacterial DNA is used as it is a cloning vector (plasmid). In recombinant DNA technology the particular sequence of DNA that we want to replicate or want to produce in huge number, is attached either with plasmid of bacteria or a DNA of bacteriophage and thus produce the recombinant or hybrid DNA which is copied each time when the bacteria or bacteriophage multiply. In this way the hybrid DNA will be transferred from parent cell to daughter cells.

What is recombinant sequence?

A recombinant sequence of DNA is a sequence of DNA that comes from more than one source. Examples of recombinant DNA are plasmids that are put into bacteria. The plasmid comes from the bacteria (or a bacteria at least) but a target gene has been added (say the lac operon gene that allows bacteria to thrive on lactose), this plasmid is now a recombinant DNA sequence.
