Craig Venter's group reported sixfold coverage of the H. influenzae Rd genome. Given that the genome is 1,830,137 base pairs, calculate the number of base pairs that are likely to remain nced
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.

Haemophilus influenzae is a Gram-negative, non-motile, coccobacillary, facultatively anaerobic, capnophilic pathogenic bacteria of the family Pasteurellaceae. It was originally known as Pfeiffer's bacillus or Bacillus influenzae. It is a mesophilic bacterium and grows best at a temperature range of 35 to 37 °C.
Pneumonia, meningitis, and blood infections are few of the localized and invasive infections caused by H. influenzae usually in newborns and young children.
