26 SEX IN MICROORGANISMS 



and morphological aspects of conjugation and meiosis in E. coli, but 

 the even more exciting prospects of discovering, elucidating, and 

 correlating different modifications of sexuality and transfer of genetic 

 material in microorganisms. With a clearer understanding of these 

 relationships, the bacteria may be expected to occupy an increasingly 

 important place in the study of the comparative biology of sex.
