If someone could explain this it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Explain what happened in each quadrant of the TSA and DMA plates. Seven of these quadrants represent controls for this experiment – you should explain why each control was done, whether or not you would expect growth to appear in that quadrant and why, and what result you saw with your experiment (if you did not get the result that you anticipated, explain why not). Acinetobacter are common soil organisms. What do the results of this experiment tell you about potential problems that may be encountered with release of genetically modified organisms?

These are called flor yeast. The following Southern blot is looking at the FLO11 gene that is thought to be involved in whether yeast are flor or not.
