Which of the following statements about Hfr strains of E. coli is FALSE? Group of answer choices Hfr stands for "high frequency recombination" In Hfr strains, the F factor is integrated into the main bacterial chromosome The location and order of genes along the chromosome can be mapped using the time of transfer of different marker genes. Genetic exchange between Hfr and F− strains is studied using the interrupted mating technique In Hfr strains, the F factor is integrated into a plasmid
