Jakub Czarnecki, Morgan Lambérioux, Ole Skovgaard, Amaury Bignaud, Najwa Taïb, Théophile Niault, Jasmin Ostermayer, Pascale Bourhy, Julia Bos, Elvira Krakowska, Dariusz Bartosik, Romain Koszul, Martial Marbouty, Didier Mazel, Marie‐Eve Val

This study identifies two categories of extrachromosomal replicons in bacteria and shows that large replicons replicate in sync with the chromosome and use its replication machinery for stable inheritance.
