Vertical transmission information


Vertical transmission of symbionts is the transfer of a microbial symbiont from the parent directly to the offspring.[1]  Many metazoan species carry symbiotic bacteria which play a mutualistic, commensal, or parasitic role.[1]  A symbiont is acquired by a host via horizontal, vertical, or mixed transmission.[2]
