A 'synthetic' microbe has been created by introducing the artificially produced genome of one species into the cytoplasm of another. The technology allows the introduction of easily transferable adaptive units, as well as sets of genes that have likely never been transferred successfully.
通过将一个物种的人工合成基因组引入另一个物种的细胞质，已经创造出一种“合成”微生物。该技术允许引入易于转移的适应性单位，以及可能从未成功转移过的基因集。
