A bacterial cell in which the F plasmid is integrated into the chromosome is known as an F- cell. an F+ cell. an F' cell. an Hfr cell. None of the above.
Bacterial Genomics
The study of the morphological, physiological, and evolutionary aspects of the bacterial genome is referred to as bacterial genomics. This subdisciplinary field aids in understanding how genes are assembled into genomes. Further, bacterial or microbial genomics has helped researchers in understanding the pathogenicity of bacteria and other microbes.
Transformation Experiment in Bacteria
In the discovery of genetic material, the experiment conducted by Frederick Griffith on Streptococcus pneumonia proved to be a stepping stone.
Plasmids and Vectors
The DNA molecule that exists in a circular shape and is smaller in size which is capable of its replication is called Plasmids. In other words, it is called extra-chromosomal plasmid DNA. Vectors are the molecule which is capable of carrying genetic material which can be transferred into another cell and further carry out replication and expression. Plasmids can act as vectors.
1. A genetic cross was performed with two pea plants both with green, wrinkled seeds. Of the resulting offspring, 75% had green, wrinkled seeds and 25% had green, smooth seeds (W = wrinkled; w = smooth). With regard to wrinkled versus smooth seeds, the parental plants must have been ________.
