Transduction is the transfer of host DNA from one cell to another by a virus. Some bacteriophages are temperate since they tend to go lysogenic rather than lytic. These types of viruses are able to transduce fragments of the host DNA.

Transduction
Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria. In the process of assembling new virus particles, some host DNA may be incorporated in them.

transduction. Condition in which bacterial DNA (and the genetic characteristics it bears) is transferred from one bacterium to another by the agent of viral infection.
transection The severing of a nerve to determine its specific function(s).

Transduction. The transfer of DNA sequences from one bacterium to another via lysogenic infection by a bacteriophage (transducing phage).
Transfection. The uptake and expression of a foreign DNA sequence by cultured eukaryotic cells.

Transduction: The incorporation of a cellular gene into a viral genome, that can then be introduced into other cells.

Cotransduction
Homologous recombination of two closely linked genes or two mutations within the same gene and brought into a cell on the same fragment of transducing DNA.

Signal transduction. The biochemical events that conduct the signal of a hormone or growth factor from the cell exterior, through the cell membrane, and into the cytoplasm.

signal transduction The process by which an extracellular signal is converted to an intracellular response. silent mutation A mutation in a gene that causes no detectable change in the biological characteristics of the gene product.

The first step in the transduction of light energy to a neural signal is the light-induced isomerization (change of shape) of a chromophore, specifically a vitamin A derivative. Each chromophore is bound to a membrane protein called an opsin.
