The entire phrase is "эффективность собственного переноса плазмиды рАМβ1." This appears as part of the table legend in a table entitled, "Эффективность мобилизации плазмиды pXO2 репликоном pAMß1 в зависимости от способа селекции." The entire article is about the transductional and conjugational transfer of the pXO2 plasmid of Bacillus anthracis.
Auto-transfer? autologous transfer? I don't know how to properly render the concept of собственный here.
