Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: No, plasmids are not necessary to allow bacteira to survive .Plasmids are typically not strictly for survival and are only beneficial under certain conditions. The DNA necessary for bacterial life is usually in the chromosomal DNA. The plasmid DNA may confer benefits but the function of most plasmid DNA is currently unknown. Scientists have selected for plasmid free bacteria, and plasmid-free strains, especially E. coli, are available commercially.
Many bacteria (and some yeasts or other fungi) also possess looped bits of DNA known as plasmids, which exist and replicate independently of the chromosome. Plasmids have relatively few genes (fewer than 30). The genetic information of the plasmid is usually not essential to survival of the host bacteria.
