Did you achieve isolation using the quadrant streak? If so, in which streak (1, 2, 3, or 4) did it occur? If you did not achieve isolation, what might you do differently next time to improve your results
Genetic Variation
Genetic variation refers to the variation in the genome sequences between individual organisms of a species. Individual differences or population differences can both be referred to as genetic variations. It is primarily caused by mutation, but other factors such as genetic drift and sexual reproduction also play a major role.
Quantitative Genetics
Quantitative genetics is the part of genetics that deals with the continuous trait, where the expression of various genes influences the phenotypes. Thus genes are expressed together to produce a trait with continuous variability. This is unlike the classical traits or qualitative traits, where each trait is controlled by the expression of a single or very few genes to produce a discontinuous variation.

In microbiology, a streak plate is a culture plate on which the bacteria are streaked which allows the separation of a single colony of the organism in question. It is used to isolate the single colonies of bacteria but single colonies of some yeasts can also be isolated using streaking.
