... A plasmid is a circlet of DNA found in a bacterium. Plasmids are unique to bacteria and are a means by which bacteria can actually exchange genetic material. Scientists have determined that plasmids are an excellent means of moving desirable genes into bacterial cells (see Fig. 12.1 on page 233); th ...

Genealogical DNA test
A genealogical DNA test looks at a person's genome at specific locations. Results give information about genealogy or personal ancestry. In general, these tests compare the results of an individual to others from the same lineage or to current and historic ethnic groups. The test results are not meant for medical use, where different types of genetic testing are needed. They do not determine specific genetic diseases or disorders (see possible exceptions in Medical information below). They are intended only to give genealogical information.
