Headings and subheadings, images and diagrams are provided at appropriate places, and the content is chronological as well. However, various aspects of the topic are not well balanced.

Transfer DNA
The lead section has provided a comprehensible introduction to the topic in plain language. Although the structure of lead section is clear but does not summarize the important sub-sections within the lead section. So, it is focused and organized to an extent but needs to be improved. Overall, the article is not clear to understand for a broader audience because needful elaborations do not follow the usage of technical terms. It does not provide complete information about the subject. Headings and subheadings, images and diagrams are provided at appropriate places, and the content is chronological as well. However, various aspects of the topic are not well balanced. For example, transformation with subheadings, mechanism, and uses in mutagenesis need more information about them with citations. Mechanism subsection does not contain any citation. Thus, the article is partially successful in covering all aspects of the topic. In support of the article, references to reliable sources have been cited but they are few and lack recent references. Hence, comprehensive knowledge about the topic supported by reliable and recent references, figure about mechanism can help to improve this topic. Dasmeet.kaur (talk) 05:13, 26 October 2017 (UTC)


 * I don't think that's true anymore. The lead paragraph jumps into something that most people coming to this page do not know how to evaluate or even relate to the common usage, in public, of this term. — Preceding unsigned comment added by El Cubedo (talk • contribs) 22:19, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
