The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- They are most commonly found as small circular, double-stranded DNA molecules in bacteria and archaea, however plasmids are sometimes present in eukaryotic organisms as well.
- Plasmids often carry useful genes, such as those involved in antibiotic resistance, virulence, secondary metabolism and bioremediation.
- While chromosomes are large and contain all the essential genetic information for living under normal conditions, plasmids are usually very small and contain additional genes for special circumstances.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Plasmid article was read about 74,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 81 and blocks with 89: each hit it takes is cut by 36 %.
