This ability can be induced in other bacteria via stress (e.g. thermal or electric shock), which increases the cell membrane's permeability to DNA; up-taken DNA can either integrate with the genome or exist as extrachromosomal DNA.
Kawentenan puniki prasida kerangsang ring bakteri sane tiosan majalaran antuk stress (sekadi  keni panes miwah strum listrik) sane prasida nincapang sel majeng DNA; DNA sane kaambil taler prasida kagapukang sareng genom utawi wenten sane pinaka DNA ekstrakromosomal.
