How Is Generalized Transduction Different From Specialized Transduction?

Specialized transduction uses animal viruses instead of bacteriophage. Generalized transduction is initiated by a lysogenic bacteriophage; specialized transduction is initiated by a lytic phage. Generalized transduction is initiated during lytic cycle of a virulent bacteriophage; specialized transduction is initiated during the lysogenic cycle of a temperate bacteriophage. Only one specific host gene is transferred in both specialized transduction and generalized transduction.
