A translocation in which part of one chromosome is exchanged with a part of a separate non-homologous chromosome. ~ s are the result of moving a section of the genetic material (chromosome) of the cell and attaching it to another chromosome.
Plants actually create these compounds to ensure a healthy, diverse population of bacteria lives near their roots to protect the plants. Decomposers are especially important in retaining nutrients in their cells thus preventing loss of those nutrients from the root zone. This is very important in the nitrogen cycle.
Bacterial metabolism can be divided broadly on the basis of the kind of energy used for growth, electron donors and electron acceptors and by the source of carbon used. Most bacteria are heterotrophic; using organic carbon compounds as both carbon and energy sources.
