Summary Introduction
To review:
The harmful and beneficial consequences of the homologous and site-specific recombination not occuring.
Introduction:
Genetic recombination is the process of formation of recombinant offspring from the parent. It mainly occurs in the pachytene stage of the prophase I of meiosis (cell division). The process is accompanied with the exchange of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) present on the homologous chromosomes.

How does homologous recombination differ from site-specific recombination?
Consider the following types of cells: F+, F-, Hfr, and F’ cells. Which of these four types of cells are capable of acting as a donor during conjugation? What genes does each cell that is capable of acting as a donor donate to the recipient cell?
An Hfr strain that is hisE + and pheA + was conjugated to a strain that is hisE − and pheA −. The conjugation was interrupted at different times, and the percentage of recombinants for each gene was determined by streaking on media that lacked either histidine or phenylalanine. The following results were obtained:
A. Determine the map distance (in minutes) between these twogenes.B. In a previous experiment, it was found that hisE is 4 minutesaway from pabB and that PheA is 17 minutes from pabB. Drawa genetic map showing the locations of all three genes.
