Talk:Gene transfer agent

History

The article lacks citing history of these agents. I understand that this is fairly recent, but still the year should at least be mentioned when this was first mentioned in the scientific literature. 84.112.136.52 (talk) 17:24, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Major rewrite Dec. 23, 2018

I've just done a major revision, but it's not yet polished. I see several issues that need fixing, but I don't yet know how to fix them: 1. Should this page have an Info box or something that serves the same function? 2. How do I get the images with more appropriate sizes and positioning? 3. For some references the order fo the authors' names is reversed. Rosieredfield (talk) 23:28, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

Size of GTAs

Based off of my reading of the paper Mars Sample retrieval backward contamination study (which I found cited at Extraterrestrial sample curation and Planetary protection), it seems that GTAs may be record-holding in terms of minimal size of potentially pathogenic material. Would someone with more experience than me be willing to look into this, and possibly add more relevant information to the article? Thanks, Yitz (talk) 04:42, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
